Then who should be involved in education?

Individual parents, families, grandparents, aunts, uncles, older cousins, neighbors, and......churches.

Remember: Millions upon millions of Catholics were educated though personal donations to their parishes and through the work of dedicated **volunteers** ( AKA nuns, brothers, and priests).

And....Any child who is educated today is being either homeschooled or after schooled by parents, friends, and relatives but the government school will eagerly claim the credit for all the hard work done in the HOME.

I personally go twice a week to teach my grandson Saxon Math. Of course if he attended government school the school would take full credit for his being 3 grades ahead of his peers.

Education, like most things, should be provided by the private sector. Poor kids could get vouchers from government, but it is likely that people would fall all over themselves to provide the means for poor kids to get a good education. Government can’t manage a 2-car funeral, let alone education or health care or just about anything else.
