I don't know if I agree. Our government funded public school systems are a complete joke. Kids are graduating from highschool dumber than they were when they first started. The teachers don't even care about the students, and spend more time yelling at them. A lot of people, myself included, support home schools and private schools. Statistics show that homeschooled kids/private schools score 30% higher than children in public schools on standardized tests. Now the funny thing is, there is a movement to stop home schooling, and I personally think it is fueled by our government, that wishes to dumb down the population.
It's fueled by the NEA, who doesn't want competition. You will note that the Republicans are protecting the private schools from the Democrats. The Democrats are protecting the NEA from competition.
