Can’t help but think that’s the point - to give parents more reason NOT to send their kids to school, or at least make it more hostile to do so. More interest in voucher programs is already a thing, and it was enacted in a district in Georgia with absolutely expected and hilarious (not for the kids) results. But the less interest there is in public vs private schools, the easier it will be to throw any talk of equity in education, let alone instruction

Make private schools the “reasonable” option, then Jack up the prices when families have divested from public, and then it’s the only option - at a price no one in their tax bracket can afford

(I do not support this, it’s just my doom and gloom from all the attacks on schools from the Magats)

Because if they can sell the lie of needing college, they can also sell the lie that only those people can make the AI prompts for the businesses of tomorrow! Gatekeeping, essentially

Fellow southerner here (Georgia) and I am feeling the same way. I do have faith in your whiskey distilleries though, so let’s drink to that
