Common Dreams - Toronto Globe and Mail -- For-Profit U.S. Schools Sell Off Their Textbooks

A true horror story. What happens when you privatize schools? Well, in this case selling off books, computers, lab equipment, musical instruments and supplies to raise cash, using school space as executive office space, seriously considering the students as free child labor.

Part of my problem with libertarians is they don't recognize the loss of liberty, and sometimes the selfish idiocy, that purely for-profit institutions can cause.
