[quote=Anonymous]PP again. Jeff, I almost had to put on a tin foil hat after reading that article, the basic premise of which seems to be that rich people may get tax breaks by investing in certain non profits, like charter schools. It's simply not possible that that explains why hedge fund people support the DFERs of the world. I think a better explanation is that rich business people (and I mean uber rich) who want to donate to education are skeptical of school districts and instead want more of a business approach to schools (objective measurements, results). That may not be the best thing for public schools but it's not a "Plan" to set up schools so they can make money.[/quote]
