Let me guess.... you have a child in a private school. So what rationale would you have for paying for what free down the road other than.... bashing the public institution.

I can see the mob like qualities of the teachers in our local school system. They beat the students, and each other if you don't play by the rules. One of the dumbest analogies I've read on APC, and I've read some real winners.

THAT is a moral hazard if ever I've seen one.
Of course teachers brainwash students, teaching all that science and stuff. More un substantiated BS.

We know all public unions are bad (especially teacher unions)
All public employees are lazy, over paid and have way too much time off. Government is the problem. I know because FOX news saids so, and you know they don't lie because they tell you they are "fair and balanced" . Case closed
