You’ll never get people to stop charging for services rendered, or people trying to use their money to get ahead. But you can stop public school from being funded by property taxes, which causes much of the town to town disparity disparity we see, and make them uniformly funded by the state
It's not just that. I'm sure not only are teaching standards high there, but also teacher compensation is better. Curriculum is better. Administrators aren't taking a lion's share of the funding. Etc..
Funding schools through property taxes, America's favorite method, feeds unequal education. I'm not saying we could change overnight, but there has to be a better way. One that would ensure a much more equal quality and quantity of resources.
