No Child Left Behind is an unfunded mandate designed to create an impossible situation for public schools so that private corporations can take over school systems through vouchers and other mean. It is the same strategy as the way the Republican administration handed military support operations to Haliburton and the energy policy to Enron. The results will be as inefficient and as disastrous as the administration's handling of the Katrina aftermath. It is another example of the neoconcervative plan to wreck public institutions and create an inferior private profiteering venture in its place. No Child Left Behind is designed for failure.
