Here's Republican policies at work in Kansas.

The results of Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback’s (R) economic experiment haven’t been pretty, but the effects on the state’s public school system have been especially ugly.


Valerie Strauss reported this week in the Washington Post that some Kansas educators have a bold, new plan to deal with the problem: they’re leaving.

Teachers can’t hotfoot it out of Kansas fast enough, creating a substantial shortage expected only to get much worse. […]

According to new data released by the Kansas Department of Education, at least 3,720 teachers left their jobs either by going to other states to teach, retiring or leaving the profession altogether, the Associated Press reported. That, the AP said, was substantially higher than in previous years. KCUR reported in this story by Sam Zeff that Kansas is becoming such a hard place for teachers that many are crossing into Missouri to find jobs.

It’s not like the state left these teachers with a lot of options. But Kansas does have a plan to deal with the problem.

Increasing teacher pay? No. Strengthening teachers’ collective-bargaining rights? No. Rather, the Topeka Capital-Journal reported that Kansas will instead “lift teacher licensure requirements for six school districts, including two of the state’s largest.”

The policies are working. It has long been their aim to destroy public education and replace it with religious schools and for-profit private schools.

Any chance that if they themselves picked the categories in a "quality of life" quota they would come out on top?

That's a fair point, mookie.

So here's a question for the mid- to far-left posters:

Is there a person in government who doesn't caucus with the Democrats that you would consider voting for in a presidential race*?


*Assume you were the deciding vote, so none of this, "Well, I vote in Minnesota so it doesn't matter" or "Trump isn't electable" dodges.

I always kind of liked Jon Huntsman. Seemed reasonable in the debates I watched, fiscally conservative but relatively pro science...I think he finished last in Iowa when he ran.

I saw Huntsman speak at the National Press Club and my takeaway was he was the first Republican candidate I would have considered voting for since Jack Kemp.

Budget cuts to education. Isn't it obvious? Same thing will happen in Wisconsin.

It's already happened on the Madison campus with research. And there will be all those people who worked for environmental protection and government oversight whose jobs will disappear.

Don't get me started on him. Wisconsin has been home to some great progressive politics, but it has proven it can produce some truly dangerous players as well. Our Joe to your Eugene.
