PRIVATE SCHOOLS: A double burden
I agree with Mr. Erwin’s three points about school choice, that it is the parents choice to send their children to private school, we don’t need to spend more, and that it is our own taxpayer dollars that fund public schools. The point he misses however, is that our current method of funding public schools is unwise.
Parents who send their children to private schools are shouldering a double burden of taxation and tuition. Yes, it is my choice, but when I pass a brand new 40 passenger $120,000 school bus occupied by one child, in my vehicle with 10 kids squeezed in, kinda makes me grit my teeth a bit. Waste is only a small part though.
