3. At this point, most children and most schools. If they change, they are still getting the same type of schooling so there is not escape unless you have money for a private boarding school. Most parents are two busy running around to make one or two incomes provide for their family to even be that involved with their childs schooling. Its tough out there.
Why do you continually point at the failures of the current system in an attempt to refute the one we advocate?
I point these things out because they would persist in both systems.
Except they wouldn't. When
all schools are private, they will be affordable, and teach the curriculum the parents want taught, not some wealthy businessman (unless, of course, the parents agree with said businessman). I can explain why these things would be true, but it can be best summed up by this statement: Even the poorest people in America can afford a color TV and a cell phone.
Yes they would. [You're] patently wrong in this assertion. The list I mentioned which in most part already is private would still be subject to that type of perverse influence. Keep dreaming Myrkul.
I can back my assertion with logic, can you say the same?
I do not believe you can.
I note that this is not a yes, indicating that you cannot. That's beside the point, however, so I won't address it.
As I said, I can explain why private schools would be affordable, and why they would teach the curriculum the parents want, and as I said, it can be summed up by the fact that even the poorest Americans can afford color televisions. Think about that for a few minutes before continuing.
OK, is it good and soaked in? Have you thought about
why even the poorest people in America have color TVs? The answer is the market. People want color TVs. People want education. Because the people want these things, other people, seeking to make a buck, provide these things to those people. They know that the more people that can afford to buy their product, the more money they will make from selling that product. So they sell it at a price that people can afford. If they cannot sell it a profit, they can reduce the featureset until they get a profitable product for that pricepoint. A basic television is cheap to produce. Likewise a basic education (Reading, writing, and math, and most importantly how to learn) can be provided very cheaply, and not take too long to instil. Extra features (classes) can be added on, but they raise the price a little bit. If a school does not offer the curriculum that the parent wants, then they will enroll the child in a
different school, which does, or they can always teach the child anything that they want beyond the basics themselves.
Monopolies do not serve the customers. Companies in market competition do. That is why private schools would be more affordable and teach the curriculum that the parents (their customers) want.
