I don’t agree with your overall point, but I do believe that the reduction in teacher job security is part of the goal, and honestly it should be. Tenure as currently constructed makes it almost impossible to dismiss a tenured teacher who is not doing his or her job to spec. When people can be fired for failing, they are more likely to put in the effort needed to succeed.

You do know there are ways other than fear to motivate people.
