Cause rich families to blanket refuse to live anywhere near neighborhoods with poor kids and contribute massively to the segregation between well off and impoverished neighborhoods.
Just live in a place where every home in a 45 minute radius is over a million dollars to purchase.
- yamtaddle 4y agoRight—in my city all the rich people neighborhoods in the city proper only exist because of private schools. If you have some money, but not enough for an expensive in-the-city house in a non-terrible neighborhood plus private school, you do not live there—you live in the 'burbs. All the urban- and close-old-suburb dwelling rich people would pack up and leave within a year if they were forced to send their kids to public school. Or find some way to get themselves a weird-bordered carved-out new district all to themselves. That's the only possible way they'd stay.
- MisterBastahrd 4y agoThat's why I said lottery systems. If they want to bus their kids 45 minutes to be stuck in the same school system, that's on them. I don't care.
