Simple Question
I remember having everyone pissed off at me at p.com back in '04 for posting this question.
But its a pretty simple question:
Who should determine where a child goes to school?
A.) His parents
B.) The government

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

TEH GOVERNMENTS!

Parents are too stupid to determine such important matters.

that is true 3d as most seem to want the gummit to raise their children for them.
Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
Proving tax cuts work!
Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

Without the government intervention into schooling most kids would go to school nowhere.

Well, its nice to see someone on your side say that. I believe Desh was saying a while back how most parents don't really know what is in the best interests of their children...

Nor does the gob'ment. You will notice they are made up of those same people. They just believe they are more competent because they agree with themselves.

They can do that now by simply "homeschooling" poorly.
