&gt;Maybe Mr. Zuckerberg will make wonderful decisions, ones I would personally be happy with. Maybe not. He blew his $100 million donation to the Newark school system..<p>Hopefully Zuckerberg learned a valuable lesson there -- improving inner city schools is simply not contingent upon how much money is thrown at them.<p>Case-in-point: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cato.org&#x2F;pubs&#x2F;pas&#x2F;pa-298.html" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cato.org&#x2F;pubs&#x2F;pas&#x2F;pa-298.html</a> (warning, long read)<p>Are we really going to begrudge Zuckerberg for trusting Cory Booker, who was by all accounts very persuasive, and investing $100M+ in inner city schools?  That&#x27;s hardly bad behavior as the article seems to imply.
