| Message | Oppose. However, companies should be alllowed to invest in courses for public schools in certain areas. We feel Charter Schools are the beginning of a class gap within young people and seperates the 'haves' from the 'have nots'. |

| Message | How? Would you care to explain how it creates a gap? Charter Schools are free to go to, they are just run by a private organisation, in the proposed case a private non-profit organisation. Charter Schools are not the same as private schools? Or are the Black Guards another bunch of illiterate bolsheviks? |

| Message | Yes, sorry, I ignored the "Charter School policy (free, privately run, publicly funded schools)." part. So I am undecided on such bill. I will think about this bill further. PS. Historically, the Black Gaurds fought against the the Reds (Bolsheviks). |
