erynthered Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Instead of pouring more money into the failed government monopoly, let's free parents to control their own education money. Competition is a lot smarter than bureaucrats. What do you parents think? Great article. http://www.nysun.com/article/38927?page_no=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennesseeboy Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Actuqally there already is competition. I can send my kid to Canisius or St. Joe's instead of Bennet or South Park. Assuming the kid is smart enough I can send him or her to Calisanctius. We could just shut down the school districts altogether, fire all the teachers etc. and let them form schools on their own and people can either get an education or not. Hell..it worked in the dark ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell..it worked in the dark ages. 757328[/snapback] A bit off-topic, but I was strolling about a Christian bookstore in one of the local malls a while back - Berean's is the name of the chain - and they sold complete curriculum kits for home schooling at various levels. And we know what compulsory unification of opinion can lead to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
