One of many podcasts in which Brion McClanahan explains the "splintering" we talk about in this show Ep. 2405 Contra Shapiro: The Rights and Wrongs of Israel and Gaza Scott Horton on Tom Woods Show What in the world is going on in the "schools" these days? Teachers union in Portland, Oregon, votes to strike over class sizes, pay, lack of resources Oregon again says students don't need to prove mastery of reading, writing or math to graduate, citing harm to students of color Graduation requirements for Oregon high schools no longer include knowing how to read, write, or do math because of racism or something Oregon Education Board upholds Kate Brown's ruling that high school students can skip basic math, language assessments and still graduate He who pays the piper calls the tune Who is the "customer" in government-run education ("public schools")? Parents should be, but they are not... Donald P. Nielsen (Special to the Seattle Times) "Academic achievement will not improve, schools will not get better and we will see the teacher's union demand more money in three years when the contract comes up for renewal."

In the end, what would emerge is not entirely predictable—the market never is—but whatever happened would be in accord with the wishes of the public."
