By Ross Fitzgerald, published 1/9/2009

Research shows that under a neoliberal funding policy Catholic schools are unable to match the services provided by government schools.

So now the Catholic Schools are short of a quid? Need a bigger tax break perhaps?

What ever happened to the "user pays" principle?

If you want to send your children to a religious madras or any other sort of private school then that's entirely your decision but don't expect to be subsidised by those who don't.

I would rather see my tax dollars going toward improving the conditions of the majority rather than bailing out select influential groups.
