It is racism at its core. When public schools were integrated white parents feared some kind of contamination from having their children sitting in classrooms with black and brown children. This was the impetus for hucksters like Jerry Farwell to create private schools that were for white children only. The cover story was that these were religious institutions as we are seeing today with charter schools that are also by design meant to be for white children only.
The governments are now using taxpayer money to fund schools that exclude the majority of working Americans. Most people do not appreciate how the Land Grant colleges initiated by President Lincoln and later the public universities have provided a better educated worker for businesses that improved their performance and their profits. Today we have elites that think that they can leech off the educated graduates from India and China and Europe and that there is no need to invest in an educated workforce in the USA.
There is also the unfortunate truth about the history of this country that does not support the elites' propaganda that the poor are lazy and that anyone who works hard will succeed in this country. We have the myth of the American solder as a warrior instead of as expendible tools to further the objectives of the rich. We now have the greatest gap between the wealth and the workers that has existed in this country. One would have to go to France or Russia before their revolutions to find its equal.
