Know the Enemy II: Battlefield Chicago

Our previous post described how a neoliberal NGO run by Hollywood moguls is trying to destroy public education in Los Angeles.

In Chicago, a neoliberal NGO run by another set of neoliberal moguls is pulling the same trick.


The non-profit in question is the AUSL, run by Martin Koldyke, a long-time venture capitalist. The board of directors include the usual gaggle of corporate executives, venture capitalists, high-flying financial consultants, and a VP from the Vampire Squid (Goldman Sachs), salted with a few community leaders.

This is the same bunch of swindlers, con artists, mortgage fraudsters and thieves who looted America for 30 years, and who crashed the economy with the most irresponsible debt bubble in history. This gang of chronic economic failures are claiming to know how to run a school district.



Oh, they'll run your school district, alright -- straight into the ground.
 
But the teachers, parents and students of Piccolo Elementary are resisting.
