The "conservative" view on Education is that its subject to the Null Hypothesis:

"That is, when tested rigorously, an education intervention probably will produce a result for the treatment group that is not significantly better than what one finds in the control group. Any apparently significant result is likely to fade out over time. And any lasting result is unlikely to be replicated if tried somewhere else."

That is most every conservative believes in IQ and Genetics and doesn't think there is much education innovation to be had out there. If you p-hack enough studies you'll find something, but then when you try to implement it at scale it will fade away.

So why not just eliminate the people p-hacking studies so they can do some useless "reform" every 5-10 years that has no results and upends everyones lives. If you can throw in the fact that most of these reforms are tainted with woke garbage even better.

BTW, it's hilarious watching you people circle the wagons now that your jobs are in danger. There are no parties or ideologies in DC other than it should be the richest place in the country.
