No. If the $1 gets the Charter schools "in the door" and parents see them as ultimately superior to traditional government schools, then the traditional government schools will eventually wither away and die, then the charter schools will be shown up by the 100% private/parochial schools, then the ultimate goals of getting government out of the K-12 education business altogether can be achieved.

Yes, I did read the article. Did you? FTA: So Mr. Killion would rather keep the public Happy Hollow building unused than allow a Charter school to use it, as allowed by current state law. This, IMHO, is a blatant attempt to reduce school choice within the West Lafayette Government School Corporation geographical area.

I fail to see how this is exploitation by for-profit charter schools. It was the lawmakers supposed mistake, not the for-profit charter schools. Does the parent really care if a charter school is for-profit or not if it provides the quality education the parent seeks for his child? Again, this is just a maneuver by Mr. Killion to reduce school choice within the geographical boundaries of the West Lafayette Government School Corporation. It is clear from his past rhetoric the Mr. Killion hates charter schools and what they represent, real parent choice of where their taxpayer funds go.

I know what lean manufacturing is, I have worked at such facilities. The NHK facility in Frankfort makes all the seats for the Subaru plant in Lafayette; the seats are built mere hours before they are installed in a vehicle so they effectively have no inventory. If the Subaru plants builds cars on a Saturday, NHK also works on a Saturday. When the Subaru plant has it's two week summer shutdown NHK is shutdown as well. I was just curious as to exactly how lean manufacturing has been so profitable for Gonzo.

Mass shootings on the radar again.

Beto O'Rourke: 'Hell Yes, We're Going To Take Your AR-15': https://reason.com/2019/09/12/beto-orourke-hell-yes-were-going-to-take-your-ar-15/ But O'Rourke also promised that he would make the process an inclusive one, saying that he would "bring everyone in America into the conversation: Republicans, Democrats, gun-owners, and non-gun-owners alike." Other candidates on the stage Thursday night were less interested in what their opponents—or the Constitution—might have to say. Moments before O'Rourke's comments, former Vice President Joe Biden had challenged Sen. Kamala Harris (D–Calif.) about the unconstitutionality of her promise to issue an executive order that would limit access to guns during her first 100 days in office. In response, the former prosecutor literally laughed. Biden said a president has "no constitutional authority" to ban guns via executive order—a rare moment in which one of the candidates on stage admitted there are limitations to presidential power. "Some things you can [do with executive orders]; many things you can't," said Biden. "I would just say, 'Hey, Joe, instead of saying "No we can't," let's say "Yes, we can,"'" retorted Harris, borrowing President Barack Obama's famous campaign line. Then she cackled hysterically while Biden responded "let's be constitutional." .... O'Rourke's idea of forcing Americans to sell their guns to the government has a similar gaping hole in it. What about the people who don't want to sell? As Jon Stokes, one of the founders of Ars Technica and one of the people behind opensourcedefense.org, a post-culture war gun rights collective, recently wrote at Reason, gun buyback programs are mostly futile: Promising to smash the Second Amendment and laughing at the right of Americans to protect their homes and loved ones, while being unable to fully think through the implications of gun confiscation plans? That's an interesting strategy for turning red states blue. Good luck with that plan Mr. O'Rourke. -
