Yes, worse.
(Big Government) — Last week, my organization praised the Indiana lawmakers for passing some of the nation’s most significant education reforms. In one of Education Action Group’s weekly newsletters, we said that Indiana’s new voucher program and its decision to lift the cap on charter schools will transform the state’s public education system, to the benefit of all Hoosier families and students. . . .
Anyone who dares challenge the status quo of Big Education can expect such name calling.
But as unhinged as unionized teachers can become, one Indiana educator stooped to new lows.
An email from a teacher at East Allen County Schools said this:
“Why do you distribute this propaganda? Do you have a conscience? Do you really believe any of this? I am not a union member but feel that Mitch’s agenda is killing Indiana. The education agenda is a holocaust against our children. Please understand I am speaking as a grandson of a Holocaust survivor. This is truly as bad or worse than what was done to the Jewish people only it is happening to innocent young people. It is frightening to me.” (emphasis added)
According to this — ahem — educator, allowing children to attend a charter school is “WORSE THAN” placing children in ovens like the Nazis did.
