THIS is How to Fix Education

Democrats are usually the first to blame America’s problems on education.

But this means they’re primarily blaming themselves because they have a virtual monopoly over education.

According to FEC data, 87% of high school teachers and 90% of professors are Democrats. Since 1980, the teachers’ unions (NEA and AFT) have contributed 30% more to federal campaigns than any other corporation or union, of which 95% has gone to Democrats.

It’s just to say that it’s effective at getting money and power.

It’s in our oligarchy’s self-interest to get you to support free pre-K and college because rather than tell you what to think for at least 12 years they’d like to do so for at least 18 years because hopefully by then you’ll be a good little conformist. Pronouns: He/Him.
