I'm so happy I'm not paying for school. 
 
Yet.

The cost of education is inflated by the lack of real competition in the marketplace. It's not your fault the education system is corrupt, but that doesn't mean education is worthless or that knowledge lacks value.

Private school is a joke.

It is as much of a joke as Public School is. "

" @torus: Bullshit occurs in public schools also, except it happens on an industrial scale. The beauty of private education is that a gap in demand creates the opportunity for educators to provide alternatives. "

" @torus: Private education recognizes the right of disgruntled teachers to form their own schools.   I have no reason to sympathize with a person who settles for mere employment in an endeavour. If they're truly passionate about their industry of choice their goal should be entrepreneurship. "

" @torus: That is why the children need to be treated as the holders of the (most important) shares, and the parents as surités. "

" @torus: By explaining how your school works to both parents and their children. Parents who don't want their children to be the guides of their own lives probably won't want their children to attend my school in the first place... but of course, I haven't even gotten my teaching certificate, so all this discussion on my part is admittedly a little premature. "

Private school is a waste of money. The fact that you went to private school or what you learn in private school becomes irrelevant once you enter university. 

" @torus:To me, the socialist kibbutzim is just as much an expression of capitalistic free will as any other voluntarily-formed, unsubsidized corporation, but I know my anarcho-socialist friends hate me for saying that ;) "
