Solution: Close down the colleges of education. Fire nearly all teachers who ever attended one. Begin the process of privatizing K-12 schooling. Hire. people with real degrees and life experience in the real capitalistic system.

The solution is not what the American people want. They demand the status quo still, and I think always will.

Miracles do happen.

Large intractable institutions can lose their legitimacy seemingly overnight. Some examples are the Protestant Reformation, American Revolution, slavery, and Jim Crow. The government's system of K-12 single-payer schools is not an exception.

I am hopeful. Some form of vouchers, tax credits, charters, Internet schools, and homeschooling are now found in every state and growing. Homeschooling is now reported by the government as being 4% of the school population. The real number is likely twice that.
