The city can hire cheaper people, but not teachers. That's been the problem the last few years - not enough teachers (because they're treated and paid like shit), so the requirements to stand in front of a class continue to drop.
Which is the GOPs plan: keep voters dumb enough to elect more Republicans.
I partly agree with you. Mostly on that on matters of this that they had a plan, and wasn't just wonton aggression against education. That is, their only plan was for the results, not the methodology.
