Jan Brewer: moonlighting as a corporate shill?

From the governor's public schedule for Thursday -

• 9:00 a.m. -
Governor to Speak at the BASIS Chandler Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

BASIS Chandler
1800 East Chandler Boulevard, Chandler

• 12:00 p.m. -
Governor to Speak at the BASIS Peoria Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
BASIS Peoria
25950 North Lake Pleasant Parkway, Peoria

• 4:00 p.m. -
Governor to Speak at the BASIS Flagstaff Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
BASIS Flagstaff
1700 North Gemini Drive, Flagstaff

I'm sure that BASIS will be reimbursing the state's taxpayers for the costs of schlepping the governor and her entourage around the state to shill for them...actually, I'm sure that they won't. 

Why do that, which would only reduce the corporate bottom line, when they can get the taxpayers to pick up the tab?
