   Let’s hope that this signifies a slowing down of privatization. Fewer people are falling for the “miraculous wonders of choice.” TFA relies on a legion of naive, dewy eyed, idealistic young people. Many young people have caught on to the real message behind the hype, an underpaid exploited workforce. It is another “gig” in the gig economy that corporations want us to accept.. TFA has always been a gimmick to provide a cheap labor source for market driven education that insults legitimacy of authentic professionals.

   Donations are not the same as profits earned through services offered, and the Alt-Right Deep State has very deep pockets to buy their goals.

   TFA is a “nonprofit”, not a nonprofit but a “nonprofit”. The billionaires funding it and funding the lobbying for it are not losing money. They are adding to their vast wealth by funding the creation of a temp gig economy through TFA. I hope Wendy Kopp is losing money, though. She deserves it.

     Unfortunately, I suspect Kopp is financially set for life and any financial failures will not affect her personal financial security. You know, just like every gravy train benefitting teacher anywhere. Not!

   Strange how they promote “survival of the fittest/market forces” yet can’t meet their own standard. Maybe not strange. Just predictable.
