We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Let's privatise schools Author: Astrid [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:31:54 07/05/02 Fri I don't see the big hairy deal about the government's desire to give parents vouchers in the US--I think it's a step toward privatising education. Why shouldn't free market principles apply to education just as to any other service we consume? We allow privatisation when it comes to higher education, and this seems to work very well (with true excellence being achieved in the finest institutions). Why shouldn't we do this in primary and secondary education, too? Astrid [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
