Al Unless you clearly understand the relationship between fixed and variable expense of any education system, I would say you are on a soap box (again). I do. New York City has 100s of schools, it is closing and reopening new ones, spending capital budget to build schools. If a percentage of children leaves the system, the equal percentage of fixed and variable costs are removed from the "system". While adding or removing a school (enlarging or shrinking it) does go up or down in discrete steps in the smaller districts, it is not a problem in large ones. There are to the school board, which is funded by people, some of which derive NO benefit from it, because they have NO children in the school system. As a good conservative, you should be against this very principle, since it is a perfect example of income redistribution. But this one you don't seem to mind...me wonders why? I don't mind because I recognize the benefit (to all, to America, direct or indirect) of providing education to even the poorest people (including illegal immigrants, while the case against their parents is pending) who could never otherwise afford to purchase education for their children by themselves.
