 MP> Yep, you believe that those individuals could teach

No one made that claim.  The claim is, with some considerations,
increasing class size can have benefits that outweigh the
disadvantages.
 MP> You must remember

The limit of class size is probably the point where there
is significant loss of ability to keep the attention of
the students.  This is largely a function of teaching
style and discipline.  For example, throw uniforms on
the students and you've increased the maximum feasible
class size.

I seriously doubt there would be a problem of schools
folding in the middle of a school year.  I certainly haven't
seen such a thing be a problem with the private schools we
now have.

Thanks for the laugh, as if Democrats aren't the larger
source of subsidies.
