[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a private school. They can charge whatever they want. Only the people who can’t afford it are complaining about the cost. [/quote]

Not complaining at all. The US legal system allows consumers to contest [b]abusive practices by corporations[/b]. Nothing outrageous about that. Just curious if there was something similar in DC. In Arizona has being proposed. Nothing crazy. [/quote]

Let’s start with the fact that schools aren’t corporations, but mostly non profits. Your comparison is just silly. You’d be better off comparing a private school education to a luxury purse. Private school is a luxury. Sure there are those affordable privates. But parents are choosing expensive schools because they want the expensive facilities, the cache, and connections. The market dictates how much this is worth to people. Private schools aren’t kept afloat by people complaining about costs. They are kept afloat by the rich. Rich people that don’t want a down-market, penny-pinching school where all the plebes go - just go to public then.

A better comparison would a counterfeit purse, that is sold at a price similar to the original brand, and hence you would like to get the correct price for the good your are buying. [/quote]

LMAO. That is the most tortured nonsensical comparison  🤣🤣🤣[/quote]

Not really. Some private schools that go bankrupt have some similarities with counterfeited goods. [/quote]
