By "student" I presume you mean "student's parents" and by "where" I presume you mean "to a non-public school, including a religious or politically oriented private for-profit school"? That is, after all, the current argument being made by Republicans described as the "School Choice" issue. What would you say, do you think they should?

JTJet Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 28 minutes ago, TheNuuFaaolaExperience said: It necessarily does. We just had a real estate developer from New York be the most powerful man in the world while having a significantly lower net worth. Not a good argument about Stephen Ross not being a powerful person. Using examples of more powerful people doesn't make another powerful person not powerful. The argument isn't over who is the most powerful. Stephen Ross is a powerful person whether you want to admit it or not. Not being as powerful as Jeff Bezos means that he is not as powerful as Jeff Bezos. I like how you moved the goalpost from powerful to world power. I didn't move anything. You just didnt read the whole exchange. The original post I was replying to said that Stephen Ross was one of the most powerful people in the world. And that is something Ross is not.

Can we give the parents the allocation instead of the school, and have them make that choice?

I have a couple years to think about whether I want to pay $15K a year to send my daughter to a much better but not great private school then to send her to public school in a sh*tty district. I live in a nice neighborhood also it's just the school district borders suck ass. There has to be a better way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCCH23 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 4 hours ago, Tranquilo said: I'm not engaging with a clown who think that it's JUST NOW that race has anything to do with SC nominees. You're naive, intentionally dense, or racist if you think that the only time race has "anything to do with" is when they're looking to hire a black person. But I guess that's how you would perceive things if you're the default race in this country. Yes, I'll openly admit my naivety and denseness. It comes from living in the bubble I was blessed to live in. That's where people like you are supposed to come in. Give me examples to help me better understand what I'm not seeing. I don't need generalities like "what are you stupid? Of course it's a problem!" All that does is make me think it's NOT a problem, because if it was there'd be examples galore. I don't know how many black people are trying to become head coaches. I don't know how many are "better" than their counterparts but are being discounted due to skin color. It sounds like you have an ideal situation in your mind, and there's nothing wrong with that. But there's a huge difference between "less than ideal" and "blatantly racist" and I guess I'll have to keep waiting for someone to convince me we're dealing with the latter . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original post I was replying to said that Stephen Ross was one of the most powerful people in the world. And that is something Ross is not. If you don't think that a global real estate developer who is around the 185th richest person in the world is not a powerful person, I don't know what to tell you. I am not denying that there are more powerful and influential people in this world. Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk are leagues ahead of Stephen Ross in terms of wealth and power. That doesn't in any way change the fact that Stephen Ross is ONE of the most powerful people in the world. The 185th ranked tennis player in the world is one of the best tennis players in the world. The gap between them and Djokovic is wide, but the person at 185 is an extremely talented player, and one of the best players in the world. If your argument is that Stephen Ross is one of the least powerful of the most powerful people in the world, I would agree. It still remains that Stephen Ross is a powerful man and one of the most powerful people in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
