Your unspecified taxes pay for teachers whose students get straight A's in the tests the teachers set.

What if you paid the teacher through the school principal?

What if the invoice for your school fees were on the bottom of your kid's annual report card?

And you had to pay it, with a bank cheque, in person, to the teacher, on the Tuesday before Christmas, after waiting in the queue with all the other parents.

With your kid and the principal looking on, all minds focussed and incentives painfully exposed?
