I and my friends all found public schools just fine. We realize there are other problems, but it is not the public education.

None of us had any problems getting educations and to be honest most of us did pretty well. As well as anyone. We ended up in the best universities and produced lots of well educated citizens and lots of scientists and lawyers.

It is the people who didn't succeed that want to change things.

None of us saw any problems with the public school system, so we don't even know what you are talking about. I can't even remember a single discussion about it short falls; only ones about the great teachers we had.

And first you tell me I don't know about the streets and I prove I probably know as much, or more than you do. I I am a product of the streets.

Then you tell me I don't know about public education, and I tell you my extended family and most of my friends have advanced degrees from the best universities in the world, all the product of public education, (west coast is mostly public education), so what does it take to convince you?

We are all the product of the public schools. And we did as well as anyone on earth.

So what in the hell are you talking about that public schools are no good?
