No one is suggesting that public schooling should not exist. I totally agree that every child has a right to education, but how does someone rich hiring a private teacher somehow conflict with this?
Child actors have had private teachers and have decades. Private schools have existed for centuries. Homeschooling is an excepted right.
Why should the rich not be allowed to home school using private staff or demonized for wanting to do so? Does anyone begrudge Mark Zuckerberg for hiring private security to help protect his family?
- loki49152 6y agoI am suggesting exactly that. Government should be absolutely separate from education for the exact same reason government is absolutely separate from religion. The purpose of government-run schools is not to ensure that each child gets an education. The purpose is to make sure the government gets to decide what constitutes an education.
