TopicEducation
ContentFunding for education should follow the student! Parents and students should decide the type of education they prefer. Government housing failed just like government education has failed, but government housing did not have a unionized government employee in every apartment like public education has a unionized teacher in every classroom. If government (public) housing had been designed like public education, we would still have very expensive public housing programs providing miserable living conditions at a very high cost. You see, MONOPLIES, whether they are public or private, provide poor products and services at very high rates. And, public education is the largest monopoly in America today. A recent GAAP Accounting for public education by the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs (ocpa.org) "Education in Oklahoma-The Real Costs" has concluded that public education costs well above $7,500 per student. Yes, government (public) education in Oklahoma is more expensive than almost all private schools! And, we have not even talked about the damage the Radical Teachers Union has done to the State of Oklahoma.
