| Message | Mr Speaker, I'll have to continue to say what I always say on these matters, public schools are what causes inequality by being second class institutions for those less well of. Give students vouchers instead so that even the poorest families can chose one among competing private school that suits them, and the government pays the cost. This would both save us money, improve education for everyone through competition, give freedom of choice and decrease inequality. Rion Thael The Good education spokesman |
