The taking of P.S. 123

In N.Y, charter profiteers like Eva Moskowitz don't even wait for board approval before sending movers into a Harlem school, to haul away teachers' materials, desks and computers without their knowledge. Juan Gonzalez of the Daily News pointed out back in February, that "Moskowitz, who makes no secret of her desire to create 40 charter schools across the city and run for mayor some day, raked in $371,000 in salaries in the 2006-2007 school year from organizations connected to her four schools,"
