Whether it is used to impose top-down HUD created goals for a town or city, or some federal education scam on local schools, the Delphi Technique is in wide use.
However, people are catching on to what it is and what it does and what it looks like.
From the Missouri Education Watchdog, we see a good example of the Delphi Technique foiled by smart citizens.
“One woman told May we are adults and we will not divide into Delphi groups.
Anne’s and my impression was the Lindbergh group stood up to DESE and basically said we are mad as hell and we are not going to take it anymore. The people decided everyone needed a voice and a chance to ask their question in a larger venue vs small groups where their message could be altered or even ignored by a facilitator. This is a significant moment. It represents the taxpayers paying for these programs asserting their rights to ask questions and to receive answers on these programs. This act is the beginning of regaining control of their schools and the programs directing educational policy.”
