1. As a public school teacher,

what I find so patronizing about charter school advocates is that they claim it is possible to take away regulations and, presto, you have good schools. Mostly what they want to take away is teachers' bargaining rights and right to organize, of course, although they'll rarely say that. But, surprise, (not), it turns out that running schools is a very complicated enterprise that actually takes money, and isn't easy. Who knew? Now I want to see these results on the mainstream media.
