Infuriating. In this form, private education is an absolute cancer.

Rick kids going to school with poor kids does not fix education. Already public schools in wealthier areas score equivalent to private schools with the same demographics. Banning private schools will mean more kids get a worse education. Instead we should focus on improving public schools where they are lacking. The problem is going to get worse as teachers are priced out of home ownership in cities.

Id prefer university to be free for all rather than wasting money paying for more public schools education of those who can afford to pay for it, and wish to.
