I say go to the voucher system. This way everyone has a chance to go to private school if they wish to. If local public schools can't compete and end up with no students, then that's just the free market in action, and private schools should be the norm instead. We spend a crapload of money per student in the public school system in the US, and meanwhile, it's so totally controlled by unions, that we end up with horrible public schools. Let the private sector take over, I say.

I've looked into the stats a little bit and the public school system cost per student is at minimum $8,000 in most areas. That's $8,000 per student that taxpayers are paying, while a good number of private schools are significantly cheaper than that. My brothers went to a pretty good private high school, their tuition was not $8,000 per student by any means. And this was a pretty top school.
It's mind boggling really.
