Absolute crap. Most parent don't have the money to send their kids to private school, especially since they are already paying for education through taxes. To say they don't care about the quality of their kids education is smug and elitist. To say that people should forgo buying a house to send their kids to private schools is crap. I'm old enough to remember when public schools did a good job, but hey were controlled by local school boards. We need to get the feds out of education and let local schools be run locally. Your condescending attitude towards the majority of Americans who send their kids to public schools is a great example of why the meme "conservative only care about the rich" never dies.
I have and idea!
Vouchers. Tax credits. Charters and the full ability to designate where you want your education dollars to go.
You get to send your tax dollars to your Marxist-run government indoctrination center ( oops! “school”). I get to send my tax dollars to a conservative organization that funds conservative schools through scholarships.
I expect people to get offended when I mention public education.
I know parents who make less than $20k/year and don’t take welfare, yet they manage to homeschool successfully. They don’t wait for pie in the sky or the fed gov to get out of education.
Public education is welfare, and it’s full of progressive trash. People who wouldn’t hire a government worker to babysit for an hour, and track in a progressive agenda (anti-Christian, pro-gay, pro-choice), will let the very same vermin babysit for six hours a day, 900 hours a year, because they’ve “already paid for it.” They can make all the excuses they can, but it’s welfare and the children are receiving a trashy education.
It’s just a fact beyond dispute. So, they can only sputter and cuss.
