There is a very simple answer, but it would be very complicated to implement. It would even require amending some state constitutions. But schools should be ran by the state and equally funded per pupil. There could be some adjustments for schools in large cities where higher property values make it more expensive to build a school than out in the country. But this would be THE SINGLE BIGGETS POLICY that could start addressing the wealth/opportunity gap in this country.
It would really chap the asses of people in wealthy communities paying a lot of property tax, but can they really complain too loudly when they have been claiming all along that poor people have equal opportunity in this country?
Taking money away from public school to finance private schools is ridiculous. There are going to be way too many kids left behind in public schools that will be much worse than they are now.
