[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i really hate all the talk of "terrible" schools as if the school buildings and staff are the problem. The problem is that the schools are filled with children who live in poverty. [b]Vouchers might help a few kids escape to better schools,[/b] but I doubt that new private schools will do any better than charters or DCPS at solving the problems of urban poverty for most.[/quote] Exactly, and what is wrong with that? Vouchers will stop the middle class from leaving, thereby stabilizing neighborhoods. They will also provide opportunity to the poor, who benefit from them now. [/quote] A lot of MC people are choosing to stay in DC. This is not 1999,[b] if you want to leave, just leave.[/b] All this foaming at the mouth to leave scares no one. I'm sure you will get a good price on your house when you sell. [/quote] PP, you're not very nice or neighborhood-friendly. How many MC people live EotP? Do you? Why don't you come over here in your fancy ride and smell our roses?[/quote]
