    “School choice” is a euphemism for “re-segregation” and “public funding for religious indoctrination.”

        No. Racist too. Classist shit already existed with property taxes being linked to school district funding.

        Now you can just straight opt out of going to a school with too many colored folk.

        PS to add: It’s worth pointing out, that the whole mention of “choice” presupposes that no one tries to improve a school, just leave it… while republicans starve its funding… just so happens to be in a black neighborhood.

    Pretty sure that’s what republicans want - private schools for the rich, and whatever the poor can afford. And hey, if you’re schools too shitty, you could always start working at 14.

      But he stands for freedom! Just look at that bridge, it’s red white and blue now because of this patriot!

      I am not being serious.
