Ed. Note: Michael Watson is on vacation this week, so in honor of the birth of a new school year, we’re re-upping a past episode on school choice and how to fix education bloat with the fantastic Corey DeAngelis. Hopefully, it leads to twice the enjoyment the second time around. We’ll be back with a new guest next week!

Almost everyone can look at the education landscape in America today and see that something has gone very, very wrong. Spending per student has increased, and there is no evidence that this increased spending has improved student performance outcomes. But what if there are factors eating up the budget and keeping the student performance outcomes stagnant? Factors such as the rise of teachers unions in non-right-to-work states, for example?
Joining us today is Corey DeAngelis, a school choice evangelist who is a senior fellow at the American Culture Project, to discuss a recently released report he helped author that looks at just that, the administrative bloat in the public school system and how it correlates to increased teacher union influence. Also joining is CRC colleague Mike Watson, our regular host and resident labor union expert.
