Hey, why bother investing in public schools when you can shut them down altogether?<br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr><br>Morning Edition, November 3, 2005 ยท Hurricane Katrina dealt a knockout blow to New Orleans' public schools, which were already in poor condition. Now, city officials are tasked with rebuilding schools, or handing over many to private ownership.<br> <hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4987622">www.npr.org/templates/sto...Id=4987622</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>You have to listen to the story...but that's no misprint. In fact, I'm pretty sure the audio said they would not have ANY public schools. They try to spin it as if local residents want it that way, but at least one local resident said it wasn't locals behind this measure at all.<br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
