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.

It’s certainly your right to believe in miracles. Remember though for generations now Christian voters have participated in bond and tax elections with their own votes to expand the public school sector. Few conservatives are elected to local school boards. It’s rare to hear a school board member speak out against the established educational order.
