Somewhere in NY there is a child that can yell way louder than his classmates.  He also has a man bun.

US education is in fact in need of many reforms but that does not mean you hire any old POS to this position simply for the sake of shaking things up

Education is an area in which I wouldn't mind seeing a decreased federal role in exchange for strengthened state control, but unfortunately it does mean saying "not my problem" when some pooper state decides to slash their education budget.

It's something left over from when I used to lean more libertarian. Most libertarian stances can be reduced down to:

-"Not my problem"

and/or

-"The free market will fix it" (Maybe it will, maybe it won't, but as long as you believe that's all that matters!)

The biggest problem is that education has been a political tether ball.  Like health care, politicizing either fucks everything up.

There is common ground.  Put a gun to any politicians head and they will agree that free healthcare and education should be a right, and that the money needed to fix it is right there in the bloated military budget.  But they cannot say that, so for now neither is getting fixed.

The far right loonies will dismiss this because HuffPo, but this is actually a very well written and balanced article.

"Seattle, for example passed a “gender rule,” that says men and women who claim to be the opposite of that can use any bathroom they want, and can’t be discriminated against.

Seattle Parks and Recreation is facing a first-of-a-kind challenge to gender bathroom rules. A man undressed in a women’s locker room, citing a new state rule that allows people to choose a bathroom based on gender identity.
It was a busy time at Evans Pool around 5:30pm Monday February 8. The pool was open for lap swim. According to Seattle Parks and Recreation, a man wearing board shorts entered the women’s locker room and took off his shirt. Women alerted staff, who told the man to leave, but he said “the law has changed and I have a right to be here.

As far as policy to protect everyone, Seattle Parks spokesman David Takami says they’re still working on the issue. Right now, there’s no specific protocol for how someone should demonstrate their gender in order to access a bathroom."

I'm glad people who get worked up about this have solved all of America's other problems.

Right?  Of the list of things I give a excrement about, this is...  Not on the list.
