Your thesis seems to be that education could be made better simply by making it private rather than public, and that it would be so obviously better that it could serve as a beacon.
Given that there is evidence of very successful schools run by governments outside the USA (Finland is often used as an example, but it is certainly not alone), despite the fact that they have bureaucracy and unions, why do you believe this?
- TheMagicHorsey 12y agoNo. My thesis doesn't care who runs the school outside the city. Only that it should be outside the reach of these dysfunctional city institutions and neighborhoods. Let anyone run them. A billionaire is necessary only because the current political system brooks no competition. The teachers will not allow it. Their cushy incompetence would be put in sharp relief if something like this were to succeed.
