Texas schoolbook orders are of particular importance because all other states would follow the lead of Texas education professionals. Other states would take the Texas list and mimic it for their own state.

But after Citizens United, $$$$$ determines the book list; and where there’s money there’s parasites looking to feed on taxpayer dollars.

You think education is expensive? Look how much Republicans spend to make people stupid.
