Private and home schooled kids consistently outperform public schools by a GIANT margin. The quality of education, by say a Montessori school, compared to public is drastically different; from building self esteem, independence, critical thinking, creativity, socialization, etc.

Public schools, are derived from the Prussian system, its optimized to create obedient workers, its the lowest common denominator in education.

Arguements of equality in public schools are out the window too when you compare the funding and quality between poor counties and wealthy ones.

Its especially unjust that parents paying for private education pay twice, for public and private.
