I don't think anyone is disagreeing with the right to a good education regardless of a parents wealth. But having a choice that they do not have to send their kids to those schools in DC should be a right as well. The extreme is to turn education over to the private sector, rework taxes and the funding, mandate parent participation (funding) of education as a percent of income. Otherwise don't have the kids. Why should someone else pay to educate someone elses kids. Take responsibility.

Yes that is the extreme, but the concept of government run schools needs to change if we are going to improve education. Parents need a choice. School vouchers are a start along with an independent rating of schools and teachers. Can't do it on grades or pass rates for obvious reasons.
