[quote=Anonymous]as was said on the "Annoyed" thread: Nothing substantive will change, as long as parents accept that "choice" means the choice to drive all over town to get your kids to a public school based on the luck of a lottery. How about we call it gambling and acknowledge DC parents accept that the government they pay taxes to seems to think it acceptable for parents to gamble their tax dollars on their children's education. Le't s call it luck and acknowledge that in DC every citizen's right to a public education is strongly determined by government-sponsored luck - to add to the luck of being born (or not) to parents who are loving and attentive, educated, lucratively employed, and/or independently wealthy. Yes, some things in life are luck, but public education?[/quote]
