    $55 million every year goes to private schools while Public Education is being cut to the core. And our Republican legislators have convinced us that we need to keep increasing our taxes to pay for Public Education while "free money" goes to private education.

    "investigation of Arizona’s Private School Tuition Tax Credits found the $55-million-a-year program has largely failed to expand access to private education for low- and middle-income families, as promised."

    What a surprise. A Republican-run legislature that hates public education creates a program to "help" low-income people send their kids to private (read:Christian) schools not only doesn't increase the number of poor students in such schools, but is rife with corruption. It is already a well-known fact that most of the kids getting these scholarships were already enrolled in the private schools. No matter. Once again in November, Arizonans who get their "facts" from FOX and/or the Arizona Republic(an) will metaphorically pull the "R" lever in the voting booth, even as the state garners second place (behind only Mississippi) in poverty. Ya get what ya votes for, and in AZ, voters get a government by, of, and for the wealthy.

    This is embarrassing for the scholarship funds, like the Catholic fund, which do not have these practices and put the vast majority of the donated monies direct to helping students and their familes.
