Every city has a different public school system. some good and some bad. It is the best for democracy to have a strong public school system with a cross section of teachers free to teach what they want, so kids can be exposed to all ideas in the world.

Dictatorships like Russia, china, the middle east, Pakistan, etc and others do not use a free open public school system and what they do is feed the kids dogma which destroy's their minds.

Kids who are exposed to the world of ideas become the smartest and most objective kids and so are best to safeguard our democracy.

I never wanted or would allow one particular dogma to be taught to my kids. I would rather my kids had a bad teacher than a dogmatic teacher who thinks they have the "one" answer.
