Privatizing education is one of the worst ideas to come out of the conservative movement in my lifetime.
Why? We constantly see people wring their hands over the United States's education standing relative to the rest of the world -- what exactly has public education done to show how superior it is to private education?

Depends on where and how it's done. Seems to me more private schools tied with vouchers could do wonders for the failing educational situation in our inner cities.
In rural areas however, it would be an abject disaster most likely. Not enough demand for competition would lead to little church schools teaching kids about Jeebus and the dinosaurs. I'm all for public schools being an option but there's nothing wrong with trying to get more private schools into the mix.
