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?

Because privatization leads to profit-motivated, with leads to greed, which leads to cutting corners, which leads to putting profits over the good of the student. That's not to say the current system is not in need of revamping and improving, because it certainly is. Total privatization is just a terrible solution.
