Yes, it's not as if you're making the world more equal by telling the rich people they're not allowed to buy that.  They'll just find a way to buy it elsewhere.  The poor people are in exactly the same position they were before, only now you've driven out the tax dollars of the rich people.[/quote]

You're basically saying: The poor people lose regardless, so why not let rich people buy their children better "public" schools?

If the rich people want their children to go to private schools, then they should send their children to actual private schools, not to private "public" schools. DCPS had to make a devil's bargain. MCPS is not in the same position.[/quote]

Well, I think we are in the same position.  Because we are struggling with the same issue -- not enough funding to provide a good educational environment.[/quote]

No, that's not the issue in DCPS.[/quote]

Really, you don't think inadequate funding for education is a major issue in DCPS.  Okay, then you're officially unhinged.[/quote]

Do you know what DPCS pays per kid?  Well above what MCPS pays.  It's not funding.[/quote]

Don't be stupid.  Just because they pay more per kid doesn't mean the have adequate funding to meet the needs they're addressing.  [/quote]
