you could also export the children, or the whole family, to a place that can support teachers

Depopulating rural Alaska, or America in general, is certainly a campaign strategy.

  • I mean, so's "Bumfuck, Alaska needs a handful of teachers, therefore we're going to import infinite Indians"

    • Who said anything about infinite? I don't see anything wrong with importing labor if it's of net benefit to our society. If there was genuinely no citizen that wanted the job for any reasonable price then what's the harm in bringing in an educated outsider who contributes positively? It improves several metrics simultaneously without harming anyone.
