It's the parents responsibility to educate their children, not society. And those parents who don't care about education, use public schools as a daycare center. They dump their children off to get them out of the way, while some of them go off and play their guitar and smoke weed.

I agree that there are parents like that. I do believe that society gets a net benefit from helping to educate kids with parents like that.

Actually, I am thinking about what you're saying. Would you entirely dismantle the public education system? How would you see things working after that?
