OT: The advantage of the private school is that it is not delivering a public good, therefore it can be selective and elitist if it chooses to. Public schools cannot make that choice.

I have never heard so much crap in one off-topic discussion in all my years here. At the core, the discussion is about parents and society-at-large not giving a damn about its youth. It is about people who would rather have an extra hundred or thousand back in taxes than to adequately invest in the youth of the nation.

Our youth is well aware of that. You do not go to a school with inadequate textbooks and inadequate other resources without being well aware of the fact that "they" just don't give a damn about you.

It is a high price we are paying for that, and a higher one we will pay in the future.
