All the more reason they will oppose this: if state salaries go up, they'll have to match it in private schools so BOTH their taxes AND their fees will go up.

This is the sad truth of much state provision: If you do care, you go private. If you don't care, you don't care. It's only people who do care about education AND cannot afford to go private who gain from this. So a minority and a badly funded one.

In democracy the majority get the government they deserve. And the majority are morons.
