I've got to disagree with you Rich. I assume your son's education would have been inadequate without your personal committment. Society is a fuzzy enough concept as to be completely without meaning. I went to a pretty bad public school and will not be forced to put my children through that nightmare. I'm not big on defunding public schools, but I do get bent out of shape when borderline schools spend confiscated dollars on swimming pools and football stadiums. We spend enough money on schools in this country, but it's like health care, we misallocate resources.
