I tend to agree, but if the idea of abolishing the Public schools is
ever discussed outside of forums such as this, you can be sure that
folks will ask about the poor folk. Best we have an answer ready. Point
of fact, access to education(note, I said education, not schools) has
been one of the reasons our nation has become the greatest nation this
world has ever seen. This access was not always provided by the
government, but has always been there.
