I just wish we would just amend our constitution to make an exception for public funds being used for private use in the case of k-12 education instead of navigating all the litigation wrangling. But approx. 7-8k in funding is not going to help the lower middle class (which lives paycheck to paycheck) and poor escape the horror show that is 75% of our public schools. It’s only going to help the upper middle class who can still come up with the extra 5-10k to bridge the gap for most private school tuition. But if that keeps the state from spending a full 18k on the departing student, the savings could further increase teacher pay – but it should only increase alongside an increased ability to fire the bad ones. There would be some improvement – but the real problem is our own culture – the destruction of the nuclear family by the welfare state & our deteriorating morals – and the resulting terrible behavioral problems compounded by poor mental health.
Socialism in most endeavors has always been a failure. Taxpayer funded education falls into this category for failure, especially when controlled by cultural Marxists which make up the “education blob.” If our elected politicos were earnest about how they spend our tax dollars then they’d search for an education system that works rather than throw more tax dollars at the failed system. They need a state level DOGE and start looking outside the box for a working system. Both the curriculum and teaching method have to be changed out as currently they are based on cultural Marxism What we have now is insanity by throwing our tax dollars at the same ol’ thing, year after year, and expecting improvement. Start looking at classical education models and credentialling teachers not with the current dialectic methodology but a Socratic method based on Judeo/Christian based Western Civilization that this nation was founded on.

Socialism for conservatives.
