Believe it or not, there is also a question of whether you can fire lots of teachers and compensate by buying more laptops. That is actually what high school students are demonstrating against in Idaho. It was a budget-cutting plan dreamed up by the aptly-named Superintendent of Schools, a certain Mr. Luna.
Yes, of course, de-professionalizing yet another profession is a constant bugaboo, er, featuraboo that arises from the Corporate Totalitarian Agenda, which is why we are discussing this crusty old theme on the current political scene, but I was getting tired and had to stop somewhere.
