Those ceo's want to apply the same failed neo-liberal-market principles that crumbled the economy in education. They are pushing the government to relinquish public education to the private sector gradually in an accelerated way. That will certainly lead to the privatization of the public education system through charters. Who else but Cathie Black to lead the destruction of public education where Joel Klein left off? That's why Steiner may seem divided between educator reflexes and being a loyal stool pigeon of the neo-liberal ceo's. We should organize to defeat the whole privatization/charter agenda.
