CB> Parents, educators, and students need to be empowered--
 CB> this is what Deming is about.  
Exactly.
...as opposed to administrators of useless programs being supported 
with obscene compensation for using their own cars etc. when the 
program does nothing but inflate the superstructure.
...especially as opposed to politicians and political management of 
education.
Put the power in the hands of those who are affected by the results 
and who have a vested interest in effecting changes for the better.
Best,
