If it is like here, the rich will make a neighborhood outside the city and create their own municipality and school district.
The poor will never ever afford to live anywhere close by.
I have in-laws in Burlingame and for some reason they have been convinced to educate their kids in Spanish. I don't mean they are taking Spanish classes, I mean they are being immersed. All of their classes are in Spanish. I would imagine the motivation behind this is pure liberal loony guilt.
Other than that I can't even begin to understand why you would do that to your children.
If the schools in Silicon Valley are that good, it won't be long before those Hispanic kids won't be working all the low-pay jobs that their parents work. Good public education helps all kids, no matter how rich or poor their parents are.
Uh; if those kids parents are here illegally, the whole family needs to be deported. MOST legal aliens; even Hispanics, are good people and want to do better.
The article goes into detail how the working poor of Silicon Valley are harmed by the policies of limousine liberals. Why aren't our resident progressives showing any concern for the working poor mentioned in the article?
My first wife graduated from MVH... I swear everyone at her graduation was stoned including the Teachers what a bunch of pot heads!!!
Maybe that's the disability the poster was speaking about.....

Limousines.......I thought liberals were all about saving the earth?
Gee, an anti-liberal O-P-I-N-I-O-N piece on a right leaning site.
WHO woulda thunk?
Can you refute any of it?
Liberalism is based in hypocrisy, as shown in the article. If liberals behaved as they "preached", they would all send thier kids to public schools, ride bikes to work (instead of cars), give up air conditioning, move into urban, minority dominated neighborhoods, and pay more taxes voluntarily. Of course, they do none of the above, because talk is cheap and false "empathy" is a trademark of every liberal.

Agreed. Those "parents" are sick in the head IMHO since NOT speaking good English WILL hurt those kids later in life.

Because your chances of getting a job in California without speaking Spanish get closer to zero every year.
You really couldn't figure that out by yourself?
