There’s nothing wrong with the public school model. There’s something wrong with what the teachers have been given license to teach. We should have total control over that, no question. But ending public school is a shit idea. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Public education is a staple of superior western societies. It was Rockefeller redesigning them to be propaganda machines for mindless worker bees with no critical thinking instruction that’s the problem. Whether my kids attend public school or not I don’t want to live in a country without a public education system. Poor kids are ignorant and violent enough. I don’t want them priced out of school.
Rational response. Public school as an entity isn't the primary problem; it's the activists invading every facet of education that is. It's happening in many private schools too.
They can actually push harder and pass bills requiring a specific curriculum for home schoolers too, or prevent you from home schooling entirely.
It is important to combat this with focus and tact, rather than being emotionally driven and just lobbing grenades blindly.
I remember having teachers even into the 2000s that were veterans. Intelligent, passionate, experienced, and fought in Nam. Very fun individuals, and knew their subjects to boot.
I agree with this. Homeschooling simply cannot work for every single family and child. I'm a public school teacher and I know how bad it is right now, but there are still some good, conservative teachers in the US. The problem lies within the American university system. They are the ones pumping out Marxist graduates who know how to spread an agenda effectively but have no concept of rational thought and debate. They are the ones training this new generation of worthless, emotional, incompetent teachers and administrators. Good teachers are fleeing the profession in droves as this continues to get worse. I pray that Trump's return to office will include a complete overhaul of the American university and public school system, including the dismantling of the DOE.

Everything needs to be gone through including the entire educational system. I agree it is needed, but needs to be fixed.
