(5,402 posts)Most folks typically use "proof" as a means to back up their claims. Specifically, you claimed that all the prominent philanthropies the Smithsonian article references engage in "attack pensions and collective bargaining for teachers", but none of your links have anything to do with the philanthropies attacking "pensions and collective bargaining of teachers".
Regarding Pearson - Has that company attacked teacher's pensions and collective bargaining? Your link mentions nothing about unions.
Regarding Walmart - have they attacked teacher's pensions and collective bargaining, and is Walmart one of the groups that helped fund the creation of CC? Your link doesn't mention anything about that.
Regarding Bill Gates - While a supporter of school reform, has he done anything to attack "teacher's pensions and collective bargaining"?
Regarding the Hedgefund link - Are hedgefunds among the philanthropies that backed the development of CC? Do hedgefunds attack pensions and collective bargaining? Your link doesn't say.
Regarding elite prep schools - Do they attack "pensions and collective bargaining" of teachers? Again, your link doesn't say.
