What's odd to me about the right's emphasis on privatization as a cure-all is college education in the United States already works like this — public subsidy + unrestricted choice with almost no regulation — and conservatives hate it! — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

What we now have is a polarized debate where GOP wants to privatize education & not ask questions about school effectiveness and Dems want to not privatize it & also not ask questions about effectiveness. The Bush/Obama consensus was big on measurement. https://t.co/GUBUEqCQRP https://t.co/Ufl6E3N62k — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

I mean yes, of course, people on both left and right continue to propose changes to education policy. But the right going all-in on unrestricted choice is part of the collapse of the bipartisan reform consensus that I'm talking about. — PolitiTweet.org

I think one of the fundamental disconnects around this is that progressives see the hollowness of a lot of these progressive gestures as indicative of inauthenticity whereas conservatives see it as proof that the project is BS. — PolitiTweet.org
