[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn't sit well with me, as a person who paid for that parking lot with her taxes, that portions of that public property be resold (in shares) to a private individual.

This really isn't hard.   What if I offered Janney so much money "for books" that administrators were persuaded to turn over the playground to my family each day from the hours of 11 to 1 pm.  How does that sound? Ludicrous, I hope.

Defenders will argue against my playground plan by distinguishing the situation, saying it would harm students.  True, but the principle is identical. [/quote]

Your attempt at logic is flawed on many levels.

First, the teacher's lot would not be a public good that is meant to be equally accessible to all individuals.  If the principal and teachers don't mind sharing their resource for the good of the school, who are you to complain?

Second, saying the principle is identical is like equating robbing a bank to eating a grape at the supermarket.  What's your actual point?  [/quote]

The logic works fine. You're hung up on scale, grape lady.
