sure we can try to change/improve public schools, but teachers unions make that practically impossible. Liberals tend to think that “improve” means, spend more money. Catholic schools are concrete proof that student performance isn’t correlated with spending, especially when all the spending goes to teacher benefits that have nothing to do with student performance

Paul, i’m pretty sure i’ve heard liberals describe themselves as pro choice. why not offer the choice? if you’re pro choice, you should
support school choice.

how the heck do you go from school
choice to segregated schools? poor black people
desperately want school choice. why would they ask for crappy segregated schools? are you saying that the darkies are too stupid to know what’s best for their kids?

good lord your are a smug elitist when you want to be.

Aren't they more involved in their children's schooling than many who don't send their kids to Catholic schools?

Paul, i’m pretty sure i’ve heard liberals describe themselves as pro choice. why not offer the choice? if you’re pro choice, you should
support school choice. Not even close. Don't conserv. say they believe in personal freedom (until they don't believe that)?

how the heck do you go from school
choice to segregated schools? poor black people
desperately want school choice. why would they ask for crappy segregated schools? are you saying that the darkies LOLare too stupid to know what’s best for their kids? But isn't that what you constantly say about inner city blacks? That they are "too stupid" to understand that the Dems. try to hook them on aid so they will vote for the Dems. ?
Isn't that a racist belief?


good lord your are a smug elitist when you want to be.

my brother owned his own company in Litchfield CT. 15 years ago, i helped him figure out what he’d save by moving the family and the business to TN. It was over $3,000 a month in his pocket, so he moved to a spectacular Nashville suburb called Franklin. Beautiful small town to raise a family. I’m not saying I’d want to raise my kids in downtown Memphis ( nor would I want to do it in Hartford) but Franklin TN is as nice as any upper middle class suburb in CT. at nowhere near the cost. same with Hollis NH, Fort Mill SC, many other places.

was it me (!who can’t help insulting people), or was it you ( who would never do such a thing) who said people are moving to red states because they can’t compete in blue states?

Get over yourself.

oh, of course not. maybe it wasn’t aimed at me directly paul, but it was smug and elitist. sorry if saying so, triggered you.

Lucky for you that you live in CT, lots of safe spaces where you can curl up with your blanky and suck you’re thumb and watch The View until you feel better.

I'm not triggered I just don't take your constant rudeness and classlessness.

See you can't help yourself.
