I have wondered for a long time, “Why are many schools, especially elementary, junior and high schools, government schools?” I understand that people may not be able to afford private schools, but does that mean the government must run the schools.
Some people cannot afford food. Does the government grow food on government farms and then give it to the poor? No. The give people food stamps and let them buy food where they want.
Why can’t we do the same thing with education? Give people Education Stamps and let me buy education where they want. The government should just be the quality inspector here. As long as the schools can show they teach readin’, ritin’, and rithmetic everything should be cool.
