Let's be absolutely clear: a donation of a million dollars will be subsidized by tax payers to the
tune of $ 750,000 for scholarships that might go to
people earning $ 300,000 annually while genuinely
needy families will get a $ 500 coupon for tuition (which is about 1/24 the average cost of tuition at a Catholic school in the United States) and teachers will get slightly less than the cost of 10 packs of multi-colored Sharpies.
