re: #747 McSpiff

How do you give equal opportunity without the use of tax dollars? There are parents that cant afford to put their children in school. How do you put them in a school without the use of tax dollars.

A) let parents AND THEIR TAX DOLLARS (property tax that is earmarked for public ed) opt out of the public system. This will do several things.
1) it will foster greater need for private schools
2) it will force those schools to now compete for your education doallrs, much like Lowes competes against Home Depot for your home improvement needs
3) it cuts down on class sizes in the PUBLIC schools, thereby helping them out
4) it incentivises parents of children in private schools to ensure their children are working for that the parents are paying for
