Default Why send your children to private school?

Because of people like this woman:

I guess there's a reason Rice is the only elite university in Texas.

Remember that thing called the slave trade? Well, it turns out what you learned was all wrong, because it wasn't some evil buying and selling of human beings, it was simply "Atlantic triangular trade."
Really? After all these years........

Someone should let her spend time polish the big number one. Thus, she can't talk rubbish at the same time...

The pendulem swings!

It's been pulled too far Left for decades. Peiple have seen the failure, and the results of socialy indoctrinating their children with an agenda that is extreme left.
Now it will swing to the extreme right.

It would be nice if one day this pendulem could stop in the middle, at a place called Truth!

My father always told me that if I learned to read well I could pick my own teacher, to teach me any subject in the world, at a great learning center called The Library.
If "education" continues to embrace social indoctrination (left or right) this may very well be a viable alternative for some.

Pfft, libraries are just government intrusion in the traditional free-book-lending market. Pareto efficiency my arse.

Funny, while I agree with your pendulum theory, I think the pendulum has been pulled too far right
Compared to Dutch politics even Obama is relatively rightist.

I think you should never let religion control education. Let people make up their own minds about what god they should believe in, if any. And definitely don't educate it at public schools. There are people there who've got different beliefs, you know
