Corporate Investors pay money to help schools. I have a hard time seeing how you can entirely fault them even if they push a certain product. It's free money to the schools. Education Privatizers take children out of the public school system which is not necessarily bad. Less cost for the county to educate some students, but less interest in paying taxes for schools.



Corporate Investors PAY $ to schools. (What on earth...are you talking about?) Testing = paid by tax payers Technology = paid by tax payers Teach For America "Teachers" = paid by taxpayers buildings, playgrounds = paid by taxpayers free & reduced meals = paid by taxpayers libraries & media equipment = paid by taxpayers

What Education Privitizers take children out of public school that tax payers aren't paying for? Charter Schools = funded by taxpayers Vouchers = funded by tax payers
