Talk:Bill Bennett

NPOV tag

I placed the NPOV tag on this paragraph:

"Inspired by conservative economist Milton Friedman, his government passed a series of laws, known as the "Restraint" program, which slashed social services and gutted labour laws in response to economic woes in 1983, provoking a general strike which further crippled the economy. To justify massive education cuts, Bennett blamed many of the province's difficulties squarely on the shoulders of public school teachers, an argument that deeply split the electorate."

The first sentence is a perfect example of loaded language. I don't know enough about why Bennet made desicions like that for BC... and there are no citations for any of that. Please edit so that it reflects an NPOV... or at least attempts to.
