A decade ago, Florida stripped a teacher of her license for sexually abusing a 16-year-old. Last year, she opened a private school there with ease. As private schools fueled by taxpayer dollars proliferate, states are choosing not to closely regulate who runs them or what they teach:

Not everyone loses their sense of wonder. Some people still stop for butterflies, smile at frogs, listen for owls, and wake early just to watch the sunrise. May we never become too busy to notice the little miracles that make life beautiful.

As private schools fueled by taxpayer dollars proliferate, states are taking a hands-off approach to regulating them. School founders — in one case, a woman prosecuted for sexual abuse — often aren’t screened. Some states can't even say how many of these schools exist.

NEW: A woman who sexually abused a minor. Boxer Mike Tyson, who served time for rape. Both of these people successfully launched private schools that collected public money. As the voucher system grows more popular, few states have guardrails in place.

Totally correct. At a minimum, Data Centers must be required to supply ALL their own utility services and PAY FOR THEM. They must have zero impact on the community...and they can only build where the local community says YES. The alternative is unacceptable. (And I have been a techie since birth.)

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.
