[lbo-talk] Duncan: Most schools could face 'failing' label

[Wojtek S]

[WS:]  Is not it how all the money in Amerika was made?  Inside
connections, land grants, sweetheart deals, public-private
"partnerships" (i.e. public money, private pockets), monopoly
concessions, technology transfers.  If there was ever a "free market"
in Amerika, it was for small time grunts selling stuff out of their
pushcarts in the streets.
