What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.

Peter Murphy

What this bill would do is a poison pill amendment to require the school board to approve the existence of a new charter school going forward.

Only by informed public debate can we make our government accountable and our country safer.
