The For-Profit Insurrection of Houston Schools Continues
How Stealing from the Poor Minorities Keeps Them Poor
Yes, I haven’t updated people outside Houston on the Successful Governor Abbott Insurrection.

The first steps into the new school are going as planned: Miles first fired half the staff and teachers, and replaced them with many uncertified teachers, who are cheaper, non-unionized, and will easily bend to the will of Miles next year when he starts his school voucher program. The Voucher program is almost done being installed by the state, with a fake debate between Abbott, who wants the whole state to be vouchered into a private savings funds, and his loyal GOP state legislators who want to only have voucher programs for the minorities and poor.
