If you consider that it is a competitive world and we as parents need to provide the best for our kids, you are getting a double bang for your money. You are providing your child with a superior education while helping fund a public education system that will ensure that its graduates will never be able to compete with your child. Offense and defense.

It's a very interesting way to look at it, bc! I think it works as far as we are able to keep libs from shutting down opportunities for privately educated (and homeschooled) kids in the future.

For example, in the state we used to live in they are fast marching toward "certificates of mastery" for anyone to graduate from HS. It's the first step to requiring one to have one before going to college or getting a job.

That little camel's nose under the tent leads to keeping private/home schooled kids out of the marketplace. Socialists must be defeated at every turn because part of their plan is to relegate conservatives (especially Christian conservatives) into a socio-economic ghetto.

Wow, that is so cynical, and yet... so true. I'm reeling. That's a good point!
