Reclaiming America For Christ ^ | April 2018 | Paul Blair

Instead of handing $13,240 a student to the State Department of Education and trusting them to manage it (which they obviously aren’t doing well), put that money into an educational savings account controlled by the family (it’s the people’s money anyway) that could only be spent on education

“...compete to earn clients (students) by the quality of their product.”

It always comes down to this. Some metric is developed and applied, with good intentions, and from there, it gets messed up.

There needs to be some objective hard-and-fast metric applied without human bastardization.
