[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I hear people say that Arlington and MoCo are declining, what I really hear is "a public good is now being consumed by members of the public who aren't as rich and privileged as I would like." Public education is a public good. You don't get to keep the people who need it the most out. Private schools were designed for people just like you. [/quote]

This is utter nonsense and you know it.

The degradation or dilution of a public good should alarm any and everyone who uses it.[/quote]

Republicans have wanted this for decades. [/quote]

So why aren't Democrats stopping it from happening?[/quote]

Well, if it were up to the GOP, public education would be dead and it would be all vouchers to private mostly religious schools. [/quote]

Well, the Democrats run this county and we have taxpayer money going to pay for MCPS staff to work at private religious schools.

As it stands, only the wealthy in Montgomery County have school choice.  Vouchers could be a good idea.  [/quote]
