Yes.  I am very well aware of the terrible schools that poor people are forced to endure.  That's why we need to get government out of the education business.  They're robbing the poor on both ends by taking their meager funds by force and using it to pay for nearly worthless schools that they are  forced to attend.

The alternative is finding a way to go to another school.  This isn't always manageable. One thing that school choice leads to is poor schools getting even less funding.

Government lovers will never see this, you won't ever convince them that the government won't look at their best interest and that some way they can make the government work better than individuals and companies that need to improve to profit instead of force collecting with taxes and prisons.

The thing is not government lovers vs government haters.  

 

The facts are that some things scale well by government and some things don't.  School is something that scales pretty well by government.  

Yes the government manage education so well... that must be the reason why every single politician promises to correct education.

Don't remember a single time I saw any private school having to promise yearly that they would improve their standard.
