The problem with this article, irrespective of the truth or falseness of its allegations, is that it tries to make its point in the complete wrong direction.
Instead of starting with indisputable facts and building them into a case against the current system, it starts by making broad, ill-defined accusations against an similarly undefined aggressor, namely "the corporations." Before it even starts talking about what "they" have done, it speculates about their motivations.
It's not enough to give arguments for why somebody with power would want to dismantle education, and show how it could happen. If you want to make that sort of case, you need to outline how it did happen. Give us laws and sponsors. Name names. Give us debate about those specific laws, and relevant arguments made by the alleged aggressors.
All this article does is confirm people's biases, without providing any actual information outside of the author's opinion.
