Members often coordinate their political contributions. The most familiar U.S. example is the privatization of federal prisons.In 1996 Milton Friedman and his wife Rose (also an economist) launched the Friedman Foundation for Educational Choice as “the nation’s only organization solely dedicated to promoting their concept of educational choice.” “Choice” is the ed-reform movement’s euphemism for privatization.

For almost twenty-five years, Betsy DeVos has been one of the most dogged political operatives in the movement to privatize public education.Milton Friedman, patron saint of the free market, died in 2006, but his ideas about public education live on in the thought and deeds of Betsy DeVos, likely the next U.S. Secretary of Education.
