Is Denver Public School Selling Their School Buildings?  Yes and No.

Joshua Sharf, Fellow, Independence Institute joins Jeff and Bill to outline how Denver Public Schools has issued billions of dollars in securities without approval from taxpayers.  How?  DPS has "sold" 32 properties to companies and then leased them back.  Why?  The company issues securities called Certificates of Participation, and the school pays off the debt through the lease payments.  So, taxpayers are on the hook for debt they didn't approve.
