1. Wow. Couldn't agree more:

There is something just evil about parents having to sit on benches in the hallways of popular charter schools, crying and begging for their children to be "let in." There is something unAmerican about lotteries for spots in "high-performing" schools, so all the rest of the kids are left out. There is something just plain ugly about beating up teachers and blaming them for the failure of a thirty-year experiment in terror called "trickle-down economics."
