“Waiting for the apologists who continue to support this massive system of waste, abuse and failure, just because THEIR kid’s school is “excellent.”

Their participation enables the government to restrict school choice for parent/students whose schools aren’t so “excellent.”

So we should go the opposite direction and restrict choice to homeschooling and private schools?

Don’t you love these NEA talking points?

One thing: The posters on this board are a lot sharper, funnier, and a good deal more clever with the language the NEA public relations people. Conservatives have a sharp wit. The NEA guys have talking points!

I just **love** that idea of comparing institutionalizing you child in a government Marxist prison camp ( mis-named “schools”) to leaving a baby in a hot car.

I will use that one a LOT!

Start by getting the Feds out of the education racket.

That, alone, will do more to improve education in this country than anything else that's been tried in the last 100 years.
