Government must get out of the education business. Why? Because it is impossible to have a religiously neutral education. No government school is neutral today and none have ever been neutral.
Solution: Begin the process of privatizing **all** schooling.
Privatization is not necessarily a solution. Can't you think of any sleazy company? When the goal includes making in money for profit, altruistic purposes such as education may not be met. Commercial schools would adopt exactly the same measurement tools that government schools use, and then corrupt them exactly the same way to justify the existence of high paid leadership. Commercial schools would monopolize just the same as a government school. Nothing would change.
If enough people would actually participate in our government entities, they could be changed. We have a voice in governance. We don't have one in a corporation unless you own majority shares.
