    Why are right wing assholes like Gardner and anonymoose always proud to profess their lack of reading comprehension?

    So show us *all* these statistics that kids who are raised better have worse grades.

    The Ivy League isn't about education, it's about making connections.

    No it isn't. Yale is completely worthless for education. If you're a STEM student attend a DARPA affiliate university. If you're not it doesn't matter at all education wise. Now connections wise...it matters.

    We have public and private schools.

    If the private schools aren't tax supported, they can do whatever the hell they want.
    They're not necessary if the public schools are doing their job.
    They're just nice places if you are fortunate enough to afford them.

    I belong to a private club.
    If the club didn't want my money, the area has public golf courses all over the place.

    You belong to the club because it has very nice amenities... am I right? That doesn't mean the public course is not doing its job for people who just want to play golf... we have public and private schools here in our tiny system the public schools are stellar... the private schools are tremendously expensive and the kids eat lunch in a dining room with full table settings everyday... the educational opportunities are the same...
