Jeb Bush and his Industry of Corruption

To quote the brilliant activist blogger Diana Ravitch,:
"Jeb Bush is trying to present himself to the public as a moderate. Nothing could be farther from the truth. When it comes to education, Jeb Bush boasts of the wonderful transformation of the schools in Florida, but that is not an accurate portrayal of what Bush actually did. With his far-right dedication to privatization, he has created a voracious industry of greed, which relies on the public’s gullibility. Some of his allies are getting very rich, but the children of Florida are not benefitting by the opening and closing of charter schools, many of which operate for-profit."

How Jeb Bush's Florida Plan for School "Choice" Created an Industry of Corruption and chaos by Jeff Bryant


Both are great reads and I recommend them highly.
