22. OMG, he doesn't go into K12???
Bennett's company is profiting from the internet in schools. His company uses poor schools to manage homeschooled students who use Bill Bennet's K12 curriculum through the internet. The poor school gets the state money to do recordkeeping for each homeschooled student, they keep a small percentage and pay the bulk to Bennett's company K12. Bennett's program has all kinds of subtle social engineering in it. Things like "Mom gets up to make breakfast, Dad gets up later to go to work". It's June Cleaver time, all the way. And Bennett's wife's abstinence "nonprofit" is more of the same. I haven't looked to see her salary or expenses, but the two of them are weaseling their way into the public school system and it isn't to deconstruct it as much as it is to make a fortune off of it.
