I don't think their agenda is anti union as much as it is driven by generating readership.
We see lots of these kind of on the surface interesting articles, but when it comes to having any meat, there isn't any. Just this morning on npr, there was a piece about white and Asian students being disproportionately designated as gifted, but then went on to say that there were no resources afforded those students anyway, so it was all for naught. They might as well have nominated all students as gifted because nothing accompanied such nomination.
It's like congress saying everyone is on the us presidential ballot, except everyone who is six foot three. I could complain, but it makes no difference. It's not as if you get a consolation prize.
Now, surely, _if_ they had resources behind the charade, then yes, they should try to identify all gifted students, but as is, its a meaningless designation.
