[quote=Anonymous]The concept of competition producing a better marketplace for education is absurd. It's not business, it's education, and the people who can afford to pay for better service already are doing so in the form of private schools. And vouchers, ugh, yes, let me give a bunch of science-denying religious schools my tax money so we can up the uneducated citizenry more. Without some serious regulation around charter schools, they are a mess, especially the for-profit entities. Look at Florida or Arizona - schools open and close with little notice, they don't hire actual teachers, some of them are just sticking kids in front of a computer. K12, which runs the Virtual Virginia Academy program and is one of Virginia's few charter schools, is a for-profit and an overall terrible organization (who, BTW, registers students through poorer counties to get more per-pupil money). No regulation, no validation, no public money.[/quote]
