The tragedy is people think schools are there to educate their children. Keep ‘em closed. Families should start homeschooling co-ops and private schools. Starve the beast, starve the government, starve the unions, starve the teachers. Good teachers are free to quit and hire themselves privately.
Ha. Have you considered the moral and intellectual incapacity of so many parents these days?
Many are too dumb, too liberal, too preoccupied with their own phones, or too distracted by the drama in their own miserable lives to try to homeschool their kids. Most don’t have the presence of mind to do such a thing. Or, both parents are working 80 hrs a week to pay the taxes and mortgage on the 4 bedroom with the pool in the suburbs, make the payment on the Lexus, etc.
There's are more things that schools fail to teach than they do actually do teach like finance because they don't want people to know them. It's about indoctrination and control, not about education.

The internet has made it even more obvious and with the internet people have no excuse to be ignorant.
