In this excerpt from his YouTube commentary titled “The Destruction of our Education,” Dennis Prager argues that the Democratic Party operates on a transactional model—providing money to voters in exchange for votes—and that public‑service unions, especially teachers’ unions, dominate educational policy. He claims these unions have virtually no interest in improving student outcomes, stating that none of their policies aim to benefit education and labeling them the most destructive force in American schooling.

We give you money, you give us your vote. And for the Democratic Party, that is one animating impulse. The other is the public service unions, the teachers unions, and the like that determine everything. Teachers unions, which have zero interest in doing good for students. Zero. Not 1% of their policies is directed toward improving education. It is the most destructive force in educational life in America.
