21. With the exception of elite private schools. . . .

many private and charter schools pay their teachers LESS than public schools do. What kind of teachers do you think a charter school is going to get if they pay less than public schools and don't have unions either? You think they're gonna get top-notch, well-educated, highly-qualified and highly-motivated teachers?

Do you think these uber-capitalists are diving into the Detroit public school system out of love for the kids of Detroit? If you believe that, then maybe you'd be interested in the beach-front property I've got for sale in Miami. . . .Miami, Arizona, that is.

When have rightwingers EVER cared about quality education for all, and especially for the poor? Given their record on public education, why would you believe them when they say they're only trying to help the kids?

THEY ARE LYING THROUGH THEIR TEETH.
