    Michigan. Governor Engler. We went to a model that was public/private with corporations having a say in the curriculum.

    Maybe those corporations were looking for specific talent for their workforce?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    That's Fascism. Dress it up any way you want but that's what it is.

    How? If a company needs specific talent, why can't they tell educators what they need?

    You think a private entity should dictate what a public institution does?

    That's Fascism.

    Dictating total curriculum is one thing, just asking for specific talent for a workforce isn't fascism.

    I disagree, The private sector shouldn't be involved at all. Once you let them in...even a little...you then have a situation where private money corrupts public money.

    I don't give a flying fuck what GM thinks our schoolkids should be learning but if you do care then you're my enemy. You are a bigger enemy than the tranny cult.

    So, if as the manager of the shop I ran and going to a learning institution and telling them what talent I need for my shop makes me your enemy?

    since nazis run the world you cant trust business or government.

    you can occasionally trust small versions of each..

    just remember, 'the establishment' is also an organized crime gang.
    morality is a set of beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that facilitate voluntary, cooperative and mutually beneficial relationships.

    its very close.

    the chamber of commerce has completely sold out to globalist fascism.

    In Michigan, Fomoco set up a school to teach kids how to work in their factories, Henry Ford Trade School. We also had public high schools that were extreme shop classes. Unions and Ford set up colleges to teach specifically what they needed to do in white-collar jobs. The UAW and Ford have joint apprenticeship curricula in local colleges.
    There are colleges in Michigan that are centered on General Motors' education of white-collar workers.
    Working with education has been done by the Big 3 for many years.
