Let the private schools take over the public schools. They’ll do it for halve the price with better results. Students would actually learn to read, write, and do math.
What private school costs less than a public school? I would guess that most privates schools are considerably more in tuition costs.
They are a lot more expensive than public schools in general, they pay their teachers a lot less , and most are church sponsored.
Is that what you really want- the end of public education which was seen as a necessity by our founders ? Not in the Constitution you may say, true, but if you go up to Boston (any of you right-wingers ever been there ?) on the walking tour you will see the first public school in this country. Built because the founders saw public education as the future of what would become our country.
This whole thing isn't about education, or even a budget, it is about politics, doing away with one of the few organizations that supports Democrats. Getting rid of Democrats is the ultimate goal, and so goes the great middle class of our country.
