I guess I'm lost. If the city does not fund schools, according to Ms.
Collier, who does? I seriously want to know how it breaks down. Does the
state or county fund public schools? If so, than why aren't urban schools as
lavish as the suburban schools.
Oh, and by the way, there is absolutely nothing admirable about a corporation
that can't draw it's employees by offering a decent living wage, or that uses
public tax dollars to increase it's profit margin. Especially when that same
corporation pays its CEO an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars. A
company that knows it has a city's leaders in its pocket to cover building
expenses so it can use the saved dollars for publicity and tax write offs is
anything but admirable. In fact, such a company is despicable.
