| Message | Article 1. If you are going to allow private schools why on earth would you make the theftation payer pay for people to get a private education. Article 2. Seeing as how you are already going for private education with Charter schools you may as well go the whole way. Allow the expertise that money can bring in to increase the quality of the education of this nation. Quality not quantity! |
