Robert Stacy McCain on a big chunk of what’s wrong with the government owned and operated (i.e. "public") school system:
I oppose public schools, period. And none of my kids have attended a public school since my wife and I pulled our daughter (now 20) out of the system after kindergarten.
As for prayer, every public-school student should be praying, “Please, God, get me out of this public school.”
It quickly gets to numerous points and goes on for 3800 words, the whole thing eminently readable.
