"Don't worry, _______ will provide." I know. Capitalism is great! "Of course the Prussian cabal has been secretly controlling our schools for as long as Prussia has been a country, but effectively?" Prussia set the model. Our country uses it for our country's indoctrination. Not a hard concept. "And I don't see voucher schools in my state offering radically different education, but rather, just doing the same thing with better discipline and fewer special needs kids." Why? "Most children in Denmark attend public schools." But the funds are tied to the children, not the school district. Doing so would create more competition in existing public schools. |

I was thinking "God will provide," equally hypothetical.
>>>> Prussia set the model. Our country uses it for our country's indoctrination. Not a hard concept.
But effectively? Prove that our schools are actually carrying out indoctrination. It's not even measured. How would we know? The origins and even structural similarities don't prove the intention or outcome of contemporary education. You have to show that what you're claiming is actually happening.
>>>> Why?
Ask them. Probably because of parental demand, and it's an easy formula. If charter schools are loosely modeled on the public school formula, it's easier to move kids in and out, and to hire teachers.
>>>> But the funds are tied to the children, not the school district. Doing so would create more competition in existing public schools.
You have to prove an actual effect on competition. Without overcapacity, slotting kids into schools is a zero sum game. The system may be quite stable over time, which might suggest that something other than competition is driving quality.
