Chapter 1717 It Is Still Necessary to Balance Interests

The school choice policy that Besid Vos intends to promote is a major boon for charter schools.

First of all, Bessie DeVos once practiced the charter school system when she was the leader of the Elephant Party in Michigan, and provided a lot of financial and political support for Michigan charter schools. She has enough experience in the field of benefiting charter schools experience of;

Secondly, Besid Voss is also planning to vigorously promote education vouchers. It is said that this proposal has been approved by Donald. The existence of education vouchers can effectively alleviate the urgent need for charter schools to be short of funds, and open up more charter schools in the future. The school creates conditions.

But here comes the problem. Those public schools and private schools that feel that their interests have been violated, whenever possible, do not want a minister who is not good for them to come to power. This is why Besid Voss held a dinner at such a sensitive time. She I'm not sure about it myself, I need more people's support.

Yang Cheng spoke out her thoughts, and Besid Voss retorted, "Jason, we can't stop doing it just because it's difficult. The world always needs someone to do something, no matter how difficult the road ahead is."

Listen, this mouthful of chicken soup nearly choked Yang Cheng to death.

Listen to seven out of ten words of a positive customer. Don’t believe them. Two of the remaining three sentences are useless.

For the time being, Yang Cheng doesn't know the benefits of Beside Vos's vigorous promotion of this policy. Fame is only one of them, and the key is profit.

"Bessie, can you tell me what you need me to do first?"

Beside Voss looked at Conrad and said with a low voice, "I heard that you and Richard..."

Some words are enough to say half, there is no need to finish all, Yang Cheng knows that he wants to use his relationship with Richard Debin, but what a joke, how could Richard blatantly support his opponent, he is a dang whip!

"Bessie, Richard can't help you, you know that, but if necessary, maybe I can contact Felix~"

Besidvos was stunned, "Who? Felix?"

Conrad obviously knew more about Yang Cheng's connections, so he helped and said, "Felix Morgenthau~"

"omg, do you know Mr. Morgenthau?" Bessie was very surprised~

Yang Cheng smiled faintly, "It's just acquaintance~"

Bessie didn't believe it. If it was just acquaintance, how would Conrad know? And how dare Yang Cheng say for help?

"It would be my honor to know Mr. Morgenthau~"

Yang Cheng remembered that he had threatened Felix Morgenthau, and couldn't help touching his nose resentfully, wondering if the old man still recognized him.

But if you talk big, you can't go back on your word, can you?

"I can try it, but first let me know~ Whether Mr. Morgenthau is willing to help, I can't control~"

"I understand, it's an honor to meet you~"

Felix Morgenthau is considered a great man in the Elephant Party, and in recent years, the dragon has been seen from head to toe, and he has lived himself into a legendary figure. This old man is also awesome Claes!

Yang Cheng waved his hand, "Relying on external forces is never the right way. In the final analysis, the core conflict must be resolved. The root cause of the conflict is actually those public schools, and the interests of private schools are well balanced."

Private schools include church private schools, not-for-profit independent schools, and private schools.

Besid Voss frowned, she didn't seem to understand, "What do you mean?"

Yang Cheng explained patiently, "Tuition income from private schools and donations from parents of alumni are the main sources of funds for private schools.

Because of this, once the education roll reform is successful, if the budget goes with the students, it will cause public schools to receive no money and be unable to maintain expenditures, while private schools can get more government funding as long as they enroll more students, making Public schools need to compete head-on with private schools.

This is the crux of the contradiction.

"

The key point of Besid Voss’ reform is to enable the bottom class to enjoy the same educational choices as the rich, unbind federal state education funding and public schools in school districts, and give money to parents so that parents and children can make their own decisions Go to private, charter, or public schools in good school districts.

From the school's point of view, school-running funds are an important prerequisite for running a school. If the teaching results of private schools are not good, they will naturally be eliminated from the market.

As far as high-quality public schools are concerned, these schools have no shortage of students, but limited by policies and regulations, high-quality school district schools cannot enroll students from across the district, and charter schools cannot obtain state and federal funding.

The education voucher system breaks the budget capping of school districts and the appropriation rules of charter schools. As long as good schools can accommodate them, more students with education vouchers can be recruited, and then a virtuous circle will be formed to invest in better teaching facilities and equipment. , introducing better teacher resources.

However, the existing low-quality public schools have poor teaching quality due to laziness. Parents of students will choose to leave with education vouchers. If the school cannot keep students, it will not be able to get the budget. If it cannot get the budget, it will not be able to pay teachers’ salaries, let alone maintain the school Day-to-day operations had to go bankrupt and close down.

Of course, if you can think more positively, in order not to lose your job, both principals and teachers must pay close attention to teaching and improve their professional level. On the premise of obtaining better educational resources, this is a benign stimulus.

How many schools can do this? Otherwise, they wouldn’t be called rubbish, and they would live by pointing at the government appropriation, and suddenly cut off the appropriation to let them work hard to improve their abilities. Isn’t it difficult to force the dumb to speak?

Besid Voss nodded thoughtfully, "I understand what you mean, you asked me to balance the interests of public schools, especially those public schools that need to rely on ZF funding."

Yang Cheng snapped his fingers, "That's it, you have to find a plan, at least let them shut up before you successfully take the position of minister! You have to think about the specific plan yourself, after all, you are the professional."

"I understand that what you said may be right, as long as they can temporarily shut up, after I take office, I will naturally have a way to deal with it."

Yang Cheng nodded and sighed, "It would be great if ordinary citizens had the right to vote for ministers. In fact, from the perspective of parents, education vouchers first reduce the burden of tuition fees for parents. For families who cannot afford the high tuition fees of private schools, Considering the teaching quality and learning atmosphere of the school, the people at the bottom do not need to be tied to public schools in poor school districts, but have more choices.

As long as they pay attention to educating their children and urging them to learn and make progress, they can use their strength to compete with others for good degrees. Even if they go to a new school, the school will not refuse to accept cross-district students or poor students due to lack of funds.

From the perspective of parents, if their children study hard and hold education vouchers, they can have a bright future and go to a good school, instead of being buried in a public school in a poor school district because of lack of money.

Once the policy is officially promoted, parents will definitely be grateful to you.

At that time, not to mention the minister, even the vice president can think about it. "

"It's a pity that there is no if~" Conrad sighed.

"Thank you Jason anyway, you provided me with a new idea~" Bessie said gratefully.

"No~ You are just a fan of the authorities, trapped in the maze, and it is difficult to find the real exit, but I am different. I am standing in the sky and looking down, with God's perspective, I can naturally show you the way."

"Thanks, shall we have a drink?"

"Of course~chee~"

"chee~"

It is difficult to feel the charming night of Manhattan in the streets. It is only more intoxicating when you are on a high place and look at the silhouette of the taillights of the car through the glass.

Yang Cheng, who just came out of the dinner party, had no time to pay attention to the blurred night, gently caressed Liu Junyu, who was a little drunk, and said with concern, "I told you not to drink so fast, are you drunk?"

Liu Junyu pouted, and said softly, "I'm not drunk~"

Yang Cheng covered her forehead, usually those who said this were drunk.

The next step is to use an exclamation point to prove that you are not drunk.

"Okay, okay~ You're not drunk, let's go, get in the car, I'll take you home~" Yang Cheng said as if coaxing a child.

"No, don't go home, let's continue drinking~"

Yang Cheng almost hated Conrad to death, this guy didn't know what to think, so he had to drag the lady at the same table to fight for drinks.

What's weird is that Liu Junyu, who has always been calm, actually boarded the thief's boat, took the initiative to take the wine glass, and poured it down one by one, with that kind of momentum, those who don't know how much alcohol they have, after drinking three glasses, their face turns red Like a pomegranate, the more Yang Cheng persuaded her to drink, the more she drank, she was really possessed.

In the end, Yang Cheng didn't bother to persuade her anymore, she was drunk anyway, does it make a difference if she drinks more or less?

Reluctantly holding the little drunk cat, when Andrew drove the car closer, he quickly helped her into the car, and saw her spread out on the back seat like a puddle of mud. Yang Cheng had no choice but to sit in the co-pilot .

Andrew looked back at Liu Junyu, and said with a wicked smile, "boss, where are you going?"

Yang Cheng didn't notice Andrew's expression, thought for a while, and reported the address of Liu Junyu's rented apartment, and the Maybach was on the road steadily.
