I don't know, I think USPS is better than FedEx. Also, here in Connecticut (the place where the rich historically sent their kids to school), there are plenty of public schools that are at least as good or better than at least some nearby private schools. When you get into preschool, for instance, the public schools are a HUGE improvement over all but the top-tier private ones. Likewise, the "magnet" program schools are a public option that is as good or better than most private schools nearby (they are special, well-funded by the state, and use a lottery to get in, though). This is coming from someone who agrees with you in principle, too. Reality is nuanced, though.
