re: Alabama Governor: Use Education Funds for Industrial Recruitment

On my phone, so quoting won't be done here. I'll hit you back point by point and marvel at my general agreement.

Schools: yes. More competition in urban areas and school choice would be a good thing in those areas. That's likely the better strategy in those areas. So we should go that route. The potential for specialization is exciting in that case too. Language immersion. Technology focuses.

There is such a thing as smart government. I do understand why you wouldn't believe it, because there isn't nearly enough of it.

Finally, I'm basically saying we should cut the programs that don't work and invest in those that will. A leaner, smarter government focused on long term benefits to society and not wasting money to make us feel good.
