Two stories about how mis-managed Seattle is top Shift today. Both are ongoing themes, about the city’s over-regulation tendencies and its broken public schools.
Uber and other ride-share companies are finding out where they are on the city council’s priority list – and it’s well below the unions who fund Democrat campaigns.
And the Seattle Public School Board played the game of “do as I say, not as I do”, in criticizing the Superintendent for not solving the district’s long-running achievement gap.
Of course, it couldn’t be the school board members’ fault for schools failing their poorest students. They are just part time bureaucrats after all.
Too bad the city council members aren’t part -time as well, as perhaps there would be less regulatory overreach.
