They also
discovered that compared with healthy controls, patients with first episode schizophrenia had higher
levels of insulin
and increased
levels of insulin
resistance, again
supporting the notion that this group are at higher risk of developing diabetes.
To give you a taste of what is coming in Part 2, the arguments can be summarized as: 1) Education does not lend itself to a single «best» approach, so the Gates effort to use science to
discover best practices is unable to yield much productive fruit; 2) As a result, the Gates folks have mostly been falsely invoking science to advance practices
and policies they prefer for which they have no scientific
support; 3) Attempting to impose particular practices on the nation's education system is generating more political
resistance than even the Gates Foundation can overcome, despite their focus on political influence
and their devotion of significant resources to that effort; 4) The scale of the political effort required by the Gates strategy of imposing «best» practices is forcing Gates to expand its staffing to
levels where it is being paralyzed by its own administrative bloat;
and 5) The false invocation of science as a political tool to advance policies
and practices not actually
supported by scientific evidence is producing intellectual corruption among the staff
and researchers associated with Gates, which will undermine their long - term credibility
and influence.
