    In Public School Efforts, a Common Background: Private Education

    Today, the consensus is that there is little difference between President Obama and former President George W. Bush when it comes to education policy. Nor is it easy to distinguish differences between the secretary of education under Mr. Bush, Margaret Spellings, and the current secretary, Arne Duncan.

    Those who call themselves reformers are a diverse group, men and women of every political stripe and of every race and ethnicity.

    But there is one thing that characterizes a surprisingly large number of the people who are transforming public schools: they attended private schools.

    Many Pushing To Change Public Schools Attended Private Ones
    And this is a problem why?

    Should you have to be a victim of violent crime before you can be a police officer? Should you have to have cancer before you can be an oncologist? Etc.

    There's a huge tax break for richies who finance private schools. You didn't think those privileged assholes are pushing for private schools were doing for the good of society?

    And now there are tax breaks for giving to religious schools, destroying the church/state barrier.
