I don't think we should have any public schools at all.  I think
people who have children should be the ones who pay for school.  I'm
pretty sick of forking over 3,000 dollars a year to school tax so they
can build a better football stadium.  In Texas, highschool football is
on the local news.  They also teach to the test.  My nieces are two of
the dumbest, dullards I know.
