  • It seems your issue with the Public Education System is that students aren’t acquiring the type of education that they could with a private education. I’m not particularly well versed in this topic, so I’d like to ask a few questions.

    After reading a bit about what Betsy DeVos is pushing for, I quickly found that she’s an advocate for ensuring students of all financial needs have the choice to go for a private school education via scholarships, tax exemptions, etc. Do you think it’s possible to make this option a reality for all students?

    In your post, you talk very highly of private education, to the point of saying that public schools need to assimilate what private schools do. Considering the Department of Education has had 150+ years to progress and develop to the current system, is it possible that private education will always be better because they compete for their business? It vaguely appears to be what happens when you apply a free market principle versus a command market like public education. It’s highly unlikely that the concept of a public school in the form of a communist economy will ever excel above private education in a market economy. There isn’t a push to advance, or incentive for innovation or productivity.

    As I mentioned above, I’m not well versed in the public/private education topic, but it strikes me as trying to address a symptom, maybe the discussion should be focused on the root cause? There’s always a temptation to address a symptom, but without addressing the root cause, you become stuck in a perpetual cycle of resolving symptoms instead of fixing it properly. Which might be some of the reason behind why you’re making this post.

    What negative/positive effects do you predict for a highly unlikely scenario where our country opts for private education and decides to start phasing out public schools?

  • Hello, I'm Rosa Dankert from Bonn, Germany. I want to share our story of how Spyweb cyber was able to recover our stolen Bitcoins. Some weeks ago, my husband and I saw an opportunity to invest in Bitcoins with huge profit returns, and we invested €197,000 in a cryptocurrency exchange platform, while we continue to be patient as they suggested we put in more money but my husband fell sick and couldn’t work, I tried withdrawing our investment but the platform didn’t allow us and requested we pay 15% of our money before we can withdraw. I was depressed and almost lost my life, but I saw a post about Spyweb on Facebook. I did some research about them and found out they have helped many people recover their money from fake cryptocurrency investments. I contacted Spyweb and was able to recover all my money, Spyweb helped us get our life back. I recommend Spyweb cyber to everyone out there.
