MCAStoff

The Boston Sunday Globe reported yesterday that the Kolobian Viceroy’s plan to link free tuition at a state college to High School kids who pass the MCAS with high scores has lead to a rash of Umass scholarships running amok in wealthy communities like Newton and Wellesley.
Any damn fool could’ve told the governor that when the state legislature's noted pedagogues writes a test for the whole Commonwealth to take, the likely soul determinant of success will be SES and only SES.
Meaning that wealthy towns with good schools will do well whilst Brockton and Lynn go a beggin’.
This is just the sort of dipshit incentive plan that a naïve CEO would dream up…give the salesmen who produce a prize to fight over and the like, strictly Donald Trump stuff by way of “The Apprentice”.
It is this sort of “Dairy Queen” style thinking that is destroying the Commonwealth quite frankly.
Romney is such a perfect modern reactionary socialist that even when he wants to route some goodies to the poor house he ends up enriching the upper classes.
Not that Mitt cares or anything, his reaction to news that his schemes aren’t working to brand the critics “enemies of reform”.
Or so he bleats in those interminable high school appearances he makes shilling for the MCAS and pretending like he gives two hoots in hell about the youth of Massachusetts.
The Man from Kolob's real message for today's kids is stark and simple; Pass the MCAS, get a good job as a toady at Bain Capital Gruppe, and in ten ot twenty years you will save up enough for a cardboard-lined shithole on South Policy Street in Salem New Hampshire.
If you manage your systemic indebtedness well, you can watch "Animal Planet" on cable whilst your surly teenaged children are driven retarded by standardized testing.
And hell that is the good news.....
Ghod forbid Romney should get off his boney ass for two minutes to make a few minor changes in a scholarship program.
Ego, that is gonna be Mitt Romney’s downfall…maybe not now or even in the near term but someday…and trust me it will be a bad fall when it comes.
Massachusetts has a lot of suburban independent voters and Romney slavishly kowtows to these poor worthies. He should remember one thing though, independent voters tend to treat politicians as disposable commodities…easily replaced with some other truckling wheedling jack-off when the time comes.
If I were him, I'd fix the damn MCAS scholarships and move on...butt hat would necessitate admitting that a mistake was made and Romney's dumb-ass pride won't allow that.
Sick
Demented
Typical...
