The headline implies that they're indifferent to the country's welfare, but in reality, they're actively hostile to it. They're fine wrecking the economy if it makes them richer and/or leads to a Biden defeat in 2024. They're fine destroying public education if it lets them be "anti-woke" or push more people towards charter schools (thus further giving a leg up to people from rich backgrounds). They're fine ignoring the climate catastrophe if it makes their rich donors and dumbass voters happy.
That sounds like indifference to me. They are “fine” with wrecking stuff, but that’s not their goal. Their goal is more power, more money, more… whatever. They are 100% indifferent to the countries welfare. At least that’s what it feels like to me. It’s definitely still bad, as indifference to other peoples suffering is a pretty crappy way to be.
Charter schools are legally public schools that operate on a lottery for admittance where I live. The employees are in the state benefits system. The only difference is that the charter schools structurally are private 501(c)(3) non-profits that don't have public school boards, limiting the opportunity of the broken electoral process to interfere with education and the ability of Nazi groups like "Moms for Liberty" to fuck with them. The only fuckery they have to deal with is funding and the fuckery of the state legislature. I'm going to send my kid to one because I live in a red area full of white supremacist students and teachers, something that is WAY less of an issue at my local charter. For every charter school nightmare story, there's tons more success stories.
