> People complain that NCLB violates federalism. But states can get out of NCLB by simply refusing federal subsidies.
That is a joke right? You don’t have to do what I say, but if you don’t I’ll take your tax money and give it to someone else. Of course it violates Federalism in every meaningful way, just like every other Federal program that the states have to implement.
And this comment:
> The biggest problem teachers have is they don’t want accountability.
Accountability is a great thing. But remember the consumer here is the kids, and the “purchaser” are the parents and responsible adults. Not the Federal Government. Schools need to be accountable to their “customers”, not bloated bureaucrats.
