It is truly bewildering why people from Washington DC think they can just fly into Detroit and start giving orders like they run the place. It doesn’t matter if some bureaucrat (or board of them) tell the Federal government that the Detroit schools want help. All that matters is what the citiziens of the city want, since it is their kids that have to deal with the consequences.
A Long Line of Incompetents.
In all my time watching the Detroit Board of Education, it has been rare that they have shown signs of competence, insight, or motivation toward a goal higher than eating a good steak, driving a fancy car, or living a luxury lifestyle. Rather than concern themselves with their responsibilities (e.g. their jobs), they are primarily concerned with their own comfort.
It is the desire for the so-called finer things in life that have led to decades of declining performance, enrollment, and standards. These are crimes of fraud, misrepresentation, and neglect against the parents and children of Detroit. The entirety of the Detroit school system needs to be held accountable. Yet, no one ever is. Of course, the reason why is not very difficult to discover.
The Invasion of Detroit.
All who seek to enrich themselves at the expense of the city of Detroit are intruders, interlopers, and invaders. They seek only to reduce the city’s resources for their personal gain and to leave once they have accumulated what they want. It doesn’t matter if it’s a teacher, an administrator, a school contractor, the superintendent, or the school board. All levels have contributed to the failure.
Robert Bobb is the latest example of this.
He exists solely for the purpose of carrying out an agenda that is contrary to the wishes of the people of the city of Detroit. In return, he profits himself with an outrageous salary, pension, and outside income. The media plays their part in undermining the city by supporting this clown as some sort of “savior” of the schools.
Of course, no one in Detroit knows or knew anything about this Robert Bobb. Yet, he is now the “savior” of the schools and is getting the job done? He is succeeding where Detroiters have failed after decades of trying? It appears someone is trying to build a fantasy that cannot stand the test of real facts.
Why Robert Bobb?
Robert Bobb takes orders. He is visible and gives the illusion he is about “change” and “hope” and therefore represents a brighter future. Naturally, one person cannot change what has been happening for years, but the media and the government do their part to build unfounded belief in their puppet.
Since he is not from Detroit, he feels no responsiblity for getting anything done. He has no ties, no interest, nor concern for the community. He sees the children simply as a means to an end. Namely, the children allow him to lead a comfortable lifestyle and the city provides him a platform for his next great “accomplishment” in the next city that doesn’t want him.
It is a great scam that the government has been playing on the people of Detroit for a long time.
Is There Any Hope with Robert Bobb?
Well, it should be clear that Robert Bobb will never deliver results for the city. He is too ignorant, too weak, too clueless to have any idea how the city works and why. It is the reason why he was selected, which is why the Detroit Pubilc Schools will continue to get worse and continue to underperform.
As long as the children of Detroit are being miseducated, misled, and mistaught by the likes of Robert Bobb and his “people” in the admihistration, he will be rewarded by the powers that put him in place. This is bad news for the schools and a crime against Detroit.
Detroit doesn’t need anymore outsiders with their “solutions” and “answers” to the problems plaguing the city. It is time for the community to rely on itself. It is the only way forward to progress and success.
