After IPS providing transportation, use of facility space, and lunch services, the most pointed question directed toward an applicant is what does IPS receive in return. Not to violate the principle of &amp;#39;other people&amp;#39;s money&amp;#39;, or giving anything tangible, the answer - information. And then there is the Mutz concern that the investors receive a fair return for their efforts. I guess if charter school infiltration can survive the fail &amp;#39;em and flip &amp;#39;em Tony and Tina Bennett scandals then it is open season for whoever wants to run our public schools.
