Another, less trumpeted, distinction for DC Prep is the extent to which it as well as many other charter schools in the city relies on the Walton Family Foundation, a philanthropic group governed by the family that founded Walmart.
Since 2002, the charter network has received close to $1.2 million from Walton in direct grants.

Capitalism pays workers according to their worth.
Paying workers according to their needs is a different ism, not welcome here.
So we're blaming Walmart for the fact that more and more people are eligible for foodstamps?
