The corporate model
Sec. of Education Jim Horne and Jeb's rubber-stamp board of ed have told the department to come up with a goody-list of all the things they could afford if only the people would revoke their misguided vote for smaller class-sizes. But there are some things the state school system is able to find the money for right here and now. Like giving a 40 percent payraise to a longtime Horne aide because -- and this is a real quote -- "the commissioner wanted to use a corporate model." (Which corporation was the model, Senate Democratic Leader Ron Klein wondered, Enron?) (Penultimate 'graph.)
