Homeschoolers Need Not Apply: Will This Be the Face of Common Core?
Breitbart ^ | 05/07/2014 | Dr. Susan Berry

Posted on 05/07/2014 9:43:59 AM PDT by Rusty0604

An Indiana-based energy distribution group that operates in Ohio has informed the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) that the company will not hire homeschool graduates, a situation that may not only reflect discrimination, but also the possibility that, with a nationalized set of standards such as Common Core, homeschoolers could be shown the door when they apply for jobs in the future.

Pretty much brands that company as one that hires ill-educated illiterates, does it not?

What do they produce? (And most probably produce badly, of course.)

Just checked their web site...the word “sustainability” is a great alarm.

Translation: Whatever they produce will be overpriced, unreliable, and a good percent of the profits will go to dim-bulb-crats idiots.

Just like the slave owners of the 19th century, they knew that uneducated people were easier to control.

Smart companies hire talented individuals, not degrees.

Human Resources people are mostly clueless. They follow fads, opinions, the latest article or 'the market' because the do not understand value.

I just went to that website and it was so replete with the convoluted argot of progressivism that I almost lost my heart-healthy, all-natural, gluten-free, energy-conscious, sustainable, diverse, all-inclusive, multicultural, green lunch!

Eeeeeeeeeyeewwwwwwwwwwww.

"...the company will not hire homeschool graduates..."

That's their loss.
These kids will become smart, hard-working employees for somebody - just not them.

If American parents don’t come out against this CC take over, there is nothing we will fight for, if not our own children.

The election should turn on this issue, if we care to save our kids. If not, well then,.........

These home schooled kids will probably start their own company and put the moonbats at NiSource out of business.

It’s the parent company to a number of gas and electric utilities, including NIPSCO. It’s hard to avoid doing business with them when they’re the only option.

I'll wager that some home-schooled entrepreneurs will find a good deal on any of this company's worthwhile assets at the fire sale.

I wonder if it is subsidized with taxpayer money? Gov’t contracts?
