You're right. Striking at the doorsteps of private and public Universities is a "garbled" practice and the contradictions can always be sensationalized and "endless". Chis falls into this pit, face first, in his article...and his actions as a striking teacher on campus (the suit doesn't help his message either). It reinforces a garbled message between the mix of public and private funding and is, IMO, barking up the wrong tree. Pointless. Tack taxpayer funding out of University funding.
To take the issue further, I believe we, as a nation and society, need to decide (urgently) where we stand on public education. If we believe K-12 should be public for all, then why not University? Drawing this strange line between grade school and college public funding is arbitrary and ridiculous. It has lead to the "garbled" message we have delivered to ourselves for decades. Corporations have moved in on this indecisiveness and now rule the roost for their own benefit, not the taxpayer. Personally, I believe that all education should be private. Taxpayers should get a tax credit for each child of school age until age 18. If they want to spend it on education for their children, then that is their choice. If they don't, then they can keep more of their wages earned and reap what they sow. This will, in my opinion, result in a collapse of corrupt teachers unions and the most "equity" imaginable. What is going on today as far as public education is a scam and illusion.
