    Now you change the goal posts.
    1st it was 10%, now it's 50%.
    Sure you lose 1/2 of the students, costs reduce a fair amount. But not 50%. And if 50% is lost, it's only a matter of time before it has to close due to OVERHEAD costs.
    Which is the RW main agenda. Privatize schools, then remove public funding, or transfer it. Now low income types have NO school. Or eventually, those private schools become public schools because they are mostly public funded.

    I also asked how we deal with them?
    You are shifting funding from schools to prison.

    Not worth it. 2 less students per class isn't going to reduce teachers by 10%.

    Note: you are the only RWer left in this thread. Not even tRUMPers can justify this lunacy.
    They want it, but can't justify it. Because it can't work.
    It's a bandaid on a problem, and private schools will become public schools if they get funded publicly.

    You have full control where your kids go to school in a publicly funded system.
    You simply MOVE to the school district you want your kids to go to school. Happens all the time.

    As a matter of fact, that is likely in the top 3 things one looks for when one is buying a house.
    School district.

    You are refusing to see the big picture here. If 20% of the student body leaves the public school system you need 20% less teachers in that school unless you somehow believe there is no correlation between student body size and the number of teachers in that school.

    Never said 2 less students per class. I have given the range from 10% to 50% of a school and the results of that would be 20% to 50% less teachers or maybe you think there's no correlation between number if students in a school and number of teachers.

    Great, you can choose between public schools. In the end though they are all public schools. That's like saying you can eat any brand of corn flakes for breakfast you want but but God you are going to eat corn flakes for breakfast.

    It's very simple but maybe to complex for you. Here I'll walk you through it. The vast majority of Americans can not afford private schools or for one parent to stay home and home school. "Free"education is provided by government with tax money set aside to educate our youth. You say in order to receive that free education you must attend a government run school which is in essence forcing people to put their kids in these inferior learning institutions. You have taken away the choice parents should have and forced them into a school they would rather not be in. You are saying my way or the highway. Get it now? Somehow I doubt it.lol

    It's not my problem what you can afford and what you can't.

    You keep repeating the lie that said "in order to receive that free education you must attend a government run school which is in essence forcing people to put their kids in these inferior learning institutions". The truth is that I choose to support local public schools with my tax dollars. Like a Co-op, it's the best bang for the buck. You want me to give my tax dollars to fund your elitist kid in a private school to the detriment of poorer kids. That's wrong and I hope you are Christian enough to see why it's wrong.

    Your false claim that I'm forcing parents into public schools is a erroneous and untrue as a welfare queen who says my support for workfare is forcing her to leave her home and kids to get a job.

    Is their another way besides vouchers which you are against? If so kindly inform me. Maybe I missed something. The way to get your kids their government funded education without putting them in a government run schools is?

    Dude, you keep falsely accusing me of things which tells me a lot about your character. I've posted several times to support "vouchers". Feel free to quote me where I haven't.

    Then we have nothing to debate and this has all been for naught. We both support the school voucher system that let's parents choose what schools their kids attend. We are on the same team here.

    Well there's the disconnect. You are not for a voucher system you are for letting parents not pay school taxes and use that money to put toward a private school and you are calling that a voucher. Those are two entirely different concepts, apples oranges even so alas we are once again in opposition.

    Your quote:


    "Furthermore, I support a "voucher" system where parents who put their kids into alternative education programs will see their school taxes returned to them. What I am against is seeing my taxes given to those parents."

    A voucher system is exactly what you say you are against. It is letting parents control the tax money slated for their kids education.


    school vouch·er
    noun
    plural noun: school vouchers
    1. a government-funded voucher redeemable for tuition fees at a school other than the public school that a student could attend free.

    Climb off the ledge, please. I was agreeing with the report. Once parents are allowed to take their school taxes and apply them to private schools, the state can't have any religious control over those funds. See this post previous to yours:

    seeing as pupil teacher ratio is generally too high any reduction in student numbers would be of benefit and closer to the optimum ratio...the problem isn't too many teachers it's usually there to few teachers as class sizes are to large

    So if a voucher system were enacted it would be a win win. Both students that left and students that remained in public schools would recieve s better education.

    Smaller class size wouldn't help kids get a better education?

    Anytime a group singles themselves out of humanity in general, they invite enemies.
    Human beings have a dark side - they rape, pillage, kill, and instigate unrest. It is most important to remember that we are all responsible for blocking that behavior - not because of who the victim is at the moment, but because of who we are.
    If we don't fight it where ever it occurs, it will bring us all down.

    It isn't about the Jews that kids should learn, it's about the behavior they must learn to identify and vanquish.
