Florida Republican State Rep. Charles Van Zant claims that the company, American Institutes for Research, that got the $220 million dollar contract to administer school tests in Florida has an agenda to turn Florida students gay because the company has a ‘homosexual agenda.’
There’s several issues with this man’s assertions, namely 1) the inherent homophobia in his statement, 2) someone bribed someone to get the $250 million contract, 3) why the hell is Florida able to cough up $250 million for testing and have to cut billions from education in the state, and 4) this moron has a point in shedding light on the issue of “school testing” which forces teachers to teach students the answers to the school tests but he can’t get over his own homophobia to get at the real problem which is that school children are little profit centers for school testing companies.
