Giroux

What specific points does Giroux use as evidence to support his claim about the negative effects when education is "delineated through corporate, rather than democratic ideals" ?

Giroux repeatedly mentions that the corporatizing of education does not consider equity and equality. What does this part of his argument mean? What effects will ignoring these factors have on schools of different socio-economic conditions?

Giroux mentions that another issue of privatization is "the assumption that its regulatory and competitive spirit will allow the most motivated and gifted students to succeed." What attitudes, predispositions, and other factors contribute to the fallacy of such an assumption?
