Reply #31: MAD!!! how about the tie-in with Neil Bush's co IGNITE (specializes in Ed. testing) [View All]

This is about nothing more the a huge corporate money maker! I wish someone would cover the rest of this story…..by now we all know that Jeb Bush’s educational organization promoted this bill and actually put it together. NCLH is greatly benefitting the software company IGNITE their website even promotes how to get funding http://www.ignitelearning.com/funding/ and this ALSO ties into Merit pay HB 6 in Florida! The bill was ushered along by Senator Thrasher (GOP party leader) and helped along by President of the FL Senate, Senator Atwater (personal friend of Jeb Bush) This is a going to be a huge money maker for Ignite (guess what…. it just so happens that this company IGNITE is owned by none other than Neil Bush http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignite!
BTW Why do you think that there is yet another bill waiting in the wings that mandates Civic lessons, Ignite also has a curriculum for Social Studies... how convenient!

Is it any coincidence that Jeb praises the Church of Scientology! Prometric testing, is one of Thrasher's babies linked to Sterling, which is linked back the whole Quality movement subgroup of the Church of Scientology. Additional voucher money going to private schools will erase the line between government and education

Furthermore Why do you think that there is yet another bill waiting in the wings that mandates Civic lessons. It is sponsered by Senator Nancy Detert( R) who gave a rave review of HB 6 on the floor. How convenien that Ignite also has a curriculum for Social Studies!

When are reporters going to do their job and do some investigative reporting!!
