They do... as long as they have enough money. The glory of
capitalism, dontcha know.
Public schools are for those who don't have enough money (although
in my experience the public school I went to was top-notch).
I suppose subsidizing private schools through vouchers is
reminiscent of Nixon's "milk money", bailing out farmers, banks,
and automakers, and other screw-ups. :-)
Socialism!
