I don't see your point there. The eating of groceries also goes on for many years – all one's life. *NM*

If the state doesn't pay for schools, what happens to children whose parents have no money?

More relevantly, what would schools be like if they were run like supermarkets? *NM*

Bad schools would close, good ones would get more students - sounds fine to me! *NM*

And the forced attendence by where you live instead of giving parents a choice. *NM*
