And if putting all kids into their local public schools would bring up the standard of the worst public schools to be equivalent with the best, I'd be more receptive.

But we all know that won't happen. There will still be good public schools and shit public schools - the only difference is that the parents and kids living near a shit one will have no other options.

It doesn't make education any more equal - it just gets unequal in a different way, at the price of freedom and choice.
