Sorry but I disagree that all schools should be privatised. Sure, maybe government officials don't always know what's best for people but you can't say that parents always know what's best either. There are some private schools or free schools I think they're called that are run by parents and they're actually allowed to teach creationism in SCIENCE classes. Since the government doesn't have any input in these free schools they can't stop them from doing that like they can with state schools.
