For profit schools are obviously better, I mean just look at the high quality education we got from ITT tech and Globe University. Profit motive could never possibly be more important to these institutions than a good solid high quality education.
And I am sure it has nothing to do with the consistent de-funding for public schools (by primarily republican legislatures, who by no coincidence receive campaign money or are invested in the charter schools). Or the fact that republicans in power just have no desire for a well educated electorate, because we dont want people actually exercising critical thought and challenging the notion that they are being fooled by social/cultural issues into voting against their own self interests.

I don't think you know what charter schools are. They are not the same thing as private universities and colleges.
The stats speak for themselves. Not *all* charter schools are successful, but the cost\benefit analysis is completely clear, especially in poor urban communities which are the most in need of quality k-12 education. Public school teachers barely give half a shit what happens to the students, because they get paid the same no matter what. Private schools are incentivized to perform because the faculty makes more money when they do.
