Boy, I'll tell you what. There is a growing epidemic in the contiguous 48. That problem is the poor education that our schools are putting out. Now, if we, the intelligent taxpayers, were to press our elected officials into privatizing the education of our students, everyone would benefit. The revenues of the schools with children attending would be enormous. The people choosing the schools would be happy with their choice, and the teachers would be happy to be paid more as a result of the numerous student base of a "mega school" with thousands of full-time and full paying students. Everyone would win.
