Ever hear of the Streisand Effect?

Here’s the thing. All of these services would go to private enterprise. Now you’re going to say that we can’t do some things privately, but the truth is we can.

Why is it that private schools do better academically than public schools, and when real school choice is allowed it actually improves the public schools also? Public schools have been nothing but a drain on money for decades. A fun fact is that the original definition of a “public” school was one that was privately run but open to the public. Perhaps if parents had to pay tuition for their kids to be educated they would care more about what they’re learning and not being taught. The same can be done by privatizing the DMV, or allowing UPS FedEx and other courier services to deliver mail.

Other arguments you make show that the government is extremely bloated and can stand to go on a reduction diet. Many departments and programs can be eliminated because they are basically duplicates of each other. Why do we need a department of defense and a department of homeland security? As for social security, I would far rather have the money to invest in my own way than have it be lent interest-free to the government, who always has to raid it for various purposes. We could get a better rate of return on the open market for it. Most of these programs were meant to be temporary and would be phased out in a few years from implementation anyway and just never were.

Why isn't the DoD and the DoHS the same thing? Because you don't want the cops to also be the military. You should spend some time reading up on history to find out why. And what specific form of government really really loves having the military do the policing.

And private schools are better? No, they're not. Private schools have a smaller student population and thus have a better student to teacher ratio. Public schools, when they have the same student to teacher ratio, have the same results.

Now, what's the average cost of a private school in the States? It's $12k a year for elementary and $15K a year for high school.

What's the median income for 1 person in the US? It's roughly $37K.

So, you can see the problem right there. But you're probably thinking, "Oh, well, because they don't have to pay taxes for public schools, they can use that money to cover tuition!"

We pay just under 4% of our annual salaries for public school funding. Do you think 4% of $37K covers that $12K? Does it even put a dent in that amount?

So, what is a parent to do? Enter student loans. Do some quick math on 8 years of $12K a year and then 4 years at $15K. That's $156,000 just to complete high school.

Imagine being 18 and already being in the hole for $156,000. Buying a car? Saving up to buy a house? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHA.

Don't think that will happen? Just look at the public universities. They did it there. They'll for sure do it to the elementary, junior/middle schools, and the high schools.

Hey, maybe you went to private school and they didn't teach you about the 'Company Towns.' That would be some good reading for you so you can learn what it was like when the company you worked for owned your house, the grocery store, and the school your kids were going to.

Why do private schools do better? Simple, they’re allowed to choose what students they teach and are allowed to expel the slackers. And I’d like to see the study where you learned that public schools do better when there is “school choice” allowed.

As for privatization of public services, that sounds like a one-way ticket to another Great Depression. The wealth gap is already bad enough, so unless you like the Gilded Age you’re voting against your best interests

Your first sentence reeks of racism against inner city kids.

“Why do private schools do better?” Is racist? Either you’re admitting yourself to be racist or you’re trolling. Probably the latter, so I’m just gonna assume you’ve got nothing and are just trying to salvage what little pride you have left.

You imply that certain kids, namely inner city kids who are predominantly (to use your terms) “People of color” are less capable of learning is inherently racist.
