The world isn't going to collapse if this was done. A voucher system will not destroy the public school system - guess what? Public schools are already in shambles. The real problem is that we have trillions in debt and can't afford to properly fund public and socal services if all our money is going into wars and military expenditures. The voucher system will fail for the same reason our public schools are failing. Lack of funds.

The defense spending of all these years hasn't been going into carving out the ultimate defense, its been used to create the ultimate offense. Its going to take years for people to realize this. You know what? Maybe they never well. 9/11 sure didn't wake anyone up when NORAD failed to get jets in the sky fast enough. Just think, after all these years the Soviets probably could have nuked us and it wouldve taken like an hour to respond

What we really need is to have a more stable leader with a more stable foreign policy who is trusted in the world and willing to make our nation secure effectively, not cheaply. if you really want a safe and educated population that just might mean pulling troops out of Germany after 60 years.. get it?

Thats why you have airport screeners stealing peoples luggage- they pay em 12 dollars an hour!!!

But anyway, there is much money to be gained by keeping the status quo for this people. If you want quality public education sacrifices have to be made. Do you want that sacrifice coming out of your pocket, or the govts? Right now they owe the world close to 9 trillion
