Yes it does?!?
Well I find it crazy because I went to public school, but like I've talked to an oddly large amount of people who either didnt go to public school or think everything should be privatized. Of the people in my extended family like a third were homeschooled for instance.
I went to a private school and I was abused by the same teacher for all six years I was there. He also ran the school so he basically controlled me and made sure I never told my parents, who didn't figure it out until I was an adult and someone else told them because all I had done was drop hints and then I eventually gave up.
Fuck private schools. They are accountable to no one.
Conservatives want to privatize everything because then extracting money from it is "profit" rather than "embezzlement".
Also, a lot of private schools are very religious because they don't have to adhere to any separation of church and state. Get rid of public schools and you no longer have to use loopholes to indoctrinate children.
And how did that go for them?
One is a nuclear scientist... I'm probably living in a weird niche. I think its actually the private school people who who got the most fucked up but most the home schoolers I've met have large gaps in their knowledge (history is probably the most common and one has poor science literacy, for instance)
I suppose there can be success stories, but I worry more end up with gaps. Still, I think you're right, stronger public education sounds like the answer.
