Truest statement of the week II

These charter schools pay huge amounts of money to their owners and CEOs while stripping teacher’s pay to the bone. Students, more than any other group, are subjected to the worst neoliberal policies pursued by President Obama. And, with privatized prisons always hungry for more and more prisoners, the school to prison pipeline is secure. And the privatized prisons make a profit, to boot!
