And here is why. Children need to be educated with a cross section of the population. It teaches them how to get along with a large group of people, not just those in the socio-economic bracket of their families.
The world is not made up of just one kind of people and given the dirversity of the workforce these days, kids need to grow up knowing both the wealthy and the poor. If they don't, they really aren't prepared for what will eventually face them.

I understand that here in Alabama that many of the public schools are substandard. And that is too bad. Not all public schools are like that. Fairfax High School in Fairfax VA has one of the highest level of merit scholars in the country and it is a public school.
I guess that's were my social liberalism comes in. I think all children should have a right to a quality public education. If people here were not permitted to send their children to private schools, then the public schools would improve because they would insist on it.
