| 210. Is that why countries who have it kick our ass? |

Privatization of war, and things government officials choose are bad, very bad because it's easy to pay off the person making the choice. But schools could work very well and do all over the world. The thing is the money gets attached to the student. In order for the school to get the money, they need to attract the student to go there. Getting better teachers, offering more options, being frugal with money, will all take place or nobody decides to go there or they go broke. This makes the teachers better, the schools better and our money go further thru competition.
If they do it with the structure we have now the money get attached to the school and it's monopoly to the kids in that area, then it will get abused and that is worse.
