Re: Great!

Except, of course, having an educated & literate population does benefit you directly & indirectly. Big difference between having an educated (& employed) population receiving their education from public taxes and having people download music they're too cheap to buy. Music does nothing for me at all.

Speak for yourself! Lol.

I remember some days when I was dating and didn't know how to set the right mood with a lady I was involved with at the time. I would put on a song from Barry White (the R&B singer) or Marvin Gaye and they would say exactly what I wanted to say. It seemed as if their lyrics would just melt the woman's clothes off.

I had lots of lovin' because of music. Lol! Now I am married. So I have a valid reason for not getting any.

I don't know how you could take his words as speaking for anything but himself.

I am so tempted to flame you but I will resist. I will just state that I was kidding with him.

That's the second point I would have made. Either way you pay. If not for schools, then by prisons, higher cost of goods, security on your home and a limited number of people to commerce with.

Visualize 1930. Imagine it as a permanent condition, but only for the US, as even 4th world basket cases figured out that they need to educate any children they can

Or another scenario;
Imagine community schooling. Once communities hunker down to protect themselves from communities who don't school; we'll wind up with local governments who have interesting and different ideas about what kids need to learn.

If your population is mostly fundamentalist Islam or fundamentalist Christian, what might those community schools teach?

What might America look like after 3 generations of that, while the rest of the world builds armies and decides to expand.

I'm no fan of public schooling, but it's still a mountain of wealth compared to no education at all. It also serves to help bind us all together. If you don't want to pay for that, you can stop reaping the benefits of public schooling. Now.

Wow. Have you looked at having that treated?
