GOP nominee complains that ethics rules are 'road to full socialism'

By Oliver Willis - October 15, 2018

Florida GOP nominee Manny Diaz Jr. opted for an extreme scare tactic to fight against any new ethics rules that might affect him.

A Florida state representative heavily involved with charter schools, who has for years benefited financially from legislation he helped pass, said new ethics rules would send his state on a “road to full socialism.”

Republican Manny Diaz Jr. is running for the seat in Florida District 36.

While serving in the Florida House, Diaz also serves as Chief Operating Officer for Doral College, which makes money from charter schools. At the same time, Diaz has used his role in the legislature to push an education agenda tilted toward the charter school industry.

In other words, when Diaz votes for charter school demands, he helps to enrich himself.

So Manny, can I call you Manny................did you read the book Nancy MacLean , Democracy in Chains...................it spells out how your libertarian concept of what James Buchanan did in the late 50's and 60's when it came to Prince William County, VA and the state legislature when it attacked public education, and your fucking Koch asshole is trying to do it now.

Aand now the country has a Dept. Ed. head from Michigan that really fucked over the public education system and the put in a charter system she put in place is failing the students, but she made a buck, did you buy chance see her yacht........................your one of the assholes protecting the haves and and attacking the have not mentality right..............
