Maybe, but at least they are not leeching off the taxpayer while propping up a failed , illegal system that is condemning children to a very bleak future.



Capitalism, right?





free-market capitalism ..

free-market capitalism will always ensure the best service ( in this case education) at the lowest price and will still achieve profit .. which would mean more jobs and more wealth

All of my kids go to private or parochial schools.

I have more say in their education and the teachers have more control.

It is a better arrangement than the public schools. The teachers are empowered, kids are held responsible, and I am kept in the loop. I get bi-weekly grade reports and know pretty quickly when things start going wrong. Are the teachers better? Probably not. Is the education better? Hell yes.

Show me, on a map, where on Earth this mythical "fwee-mawhket capitalism" is actually in practice.

HINT: Nowhere. Dumbass.

Typically they are less qualified.



I'm curious to know how the 'qualifications' you cite make them better or worse at performing the act of teaching.

Exactly, parents have the power in private schools and not the teachers union.

Teacher's unions have less power than administration/politics and parents/community in most school districts.

Is that why in the LAUSD it costs around $500k and takes several years to fire a teacher?

The students at private schools are usually better.


Schools have more to do with what students are there and the demands their parents place on them - that's why it's all about neighborhood and if you need to live in a bad neighborhood (ex. in a city) then private school is a good option.
