1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,440
Hey Quase, it's a very good question.

2
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,440
So the main concern really here is that our
public

3
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,400
schools are underfunded as it is, and that is
causing

4
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,000
our public schools to fail.

5
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,760
Now, obviously, probably most parents are not
necessarily aware of

6
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,440
that, or at the very least, even if they are,

7
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,840
they're gonna think to themselves that maybe
they'll want to

8
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,560
use this voucher program since their public
schools are failing.

9
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,280
But their public schools are failing is
because the fact

10
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,240
that the formula, or basically the wada, or
basic allotment

11
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:26,320
has not been adjusted since long before the
pandemic, so

12
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,760
therefore inflation's killing us in the
education sector.

13
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,240
A lot of our ISDs are in a deficit right

14
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:32,720
now.

15
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:36,480
So this is intentionally done because there's
a lobbying effort

16
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,120
made by Tim Dun and Ferris Wilkes who wants to

17
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,680
privatize our public education system.

18
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,280
This is a power grab.

19
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,640
Tim Dunn and Ferris Wilkes have two Texas
oligarch billionaires

20
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,080
in West Texas, and they want to destroy public
education

21
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,520
because they want to control it.

22
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,200
They want to purchase all of these private
schools and

23
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,600
make it so that you no longer have an elected

24
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,480
school board.

25
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,880
They want to be the ones in control.

26
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,640
Plano ISD, for example.

27
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,440
We're losing four of our public schools over
there.

28
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,240
One of them was actually specialized for deaf
kids, uh,

29
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,400
which is really sad, but the ISD is going to

30
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,080
do what it needs to because it's in a deficit.

31
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,760
It's gonna sell those public school buildings
because the ISD

32
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,840
needs the money, and I've seen this movie
before, some

33
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,800
fat cat rich person is gonna purchase those
buildings, flipping

34
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,200
them into our charter school, and then want a
voucher

35
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,400
program to fund those buildings, those
schools.

36
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,640
And then eventually Tim Dunn and Ferris Wilkes
are gonna

37
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,240
purchase them because again, this is just a
power grab.

38
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,840
This is big massive corporations and rich
oligarchs wanting control.

39
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,560
They want to be the ones in charge with
controlling

40
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,400
your children's education.

41
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,360
This is a whole entire effort is designed in
order

42
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,320
to privatize our public education system
because when the big

43
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,600
corporations do that, you no longer have an
elected school

44
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,080
board.

45
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:54,160
You no longer have an elected school board
anymore.

46
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,600
Tim Dunn and Ferris Wilkes and the other uh
oligarch

47
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,000
billionaires are the ones in control of your
child.'s curriculum
