I have been hearing and reading stories like this for years. It seems as if the mouthiest defenders of the public diseducation system are the most likely to have their kids in private schools. They must have no delusions about the value of their merchandise.
But no snake-oil salesman ever does.
As soon as my son gets old enough he will be going to a private school, but DAMN I still have to pay for the government schools with my taxes. I am in Florida and wish Jeb had the balls to do something about vouchers. Most Government schools are way too bad and leftist. Throw out the Union Teachers.
