We agree on that, and the lack of money allocated for it isn't the only problem. Education in the US should be torn down to the bricks and redone completely in a way that is nearly the opposite of what we have now. Vouchers could work in theory, but without some kind of unifying curriculum and social experience to counterbalance, that will likely produce lots of brainwashed fanatics of every stripe. > > > >> Nice idea!
