Musk deserves a future where Epstein, not Elon, is deemed the true reason for Tesla’s success. 😒 $TSLAQ

School Choice is a euphemism for vouchers.
School vouchers exist because racists wouldn’t accept desegregation.
School vouchers exist because racists wouldn’t accept desegregation.
In 1970, the NYT reported on new private schools blossoming in the south.
These all-white segregation academies were formed expressly in response to racial integration in schools.
Proponents immediately saw that they needed resources. So began efforts to take money from the public school system.
