James O’Keefe, president and founder of Project Veritas, released a powerful and troubling new video today showing a regional sales executive at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, one of the country’s leading textbook publishers and profiteers of Common Core admitting that Common Core is all about the money.

In this new video, Project Veritas journalists visit with America’s top textbook publishing companies, the moneymakers of Common Core, in an effort to expose how crony capitalism is taking over America’s educational system. Shockingly, our journalists caught a publishing executive mocking her own immoral behavior and then laughing about it on hidden camera.

In O’Keefe’s latest video, Dianne Barrow, the West Coast Accounts Manager for Houghton-Mifflin Harcourt was caught on camera saying, “You don’t think that the educational publishing companies are in it for education do you? No. They’re in it for the money. The fact that they have to align the educational standards is what they have to do to sell the books.”

It's wild how people don't ask why things get this way with government run programs. Could it be the force? Why are people so surprised? Strike the root! There would be nothing wrong with being "all about the money" in a free market of education. Every business is basically "all about the money". Why would these guys be any different. Thats what's so sad. People will here that and everything else like that and say "we gotta reform it". Take the money out of education! Whatever that would mean. Just being anti-money(the root of all evil) means you're right.

Free markets in the educational sector because the government is hiring them to do work... jeez.
