everyone arguing over whether the law is good or bad is missing the point which is that the outcome in either direction is going to be unacceptable to at least a substantial minority of users of the service and popular and universal public schooling basically seems infeasible now

i dont know. i think possibly i can see futures like: 1. different sides win at different state/local levels, end up with a patchwork of norms, reinforce over time (😬) 2. (1) but less assortment and more local exit 3. (1) but losers just deal with it https://t.co/pSslrvY9xP

to the extent there's exit and i expect there will be exit i can imagine parallel systems growing and deepening to the extent its symmetrical i can imagine growing bipartisan support for vouchers it seems like in most cases tho public schooling is further weakened as a system

oh @toad_spotted wrote about this, along with other trends a couple years back ongoing revolt of parents over covid stuff and coherence of parents as an interest group against teachers also seems relevant https://t.co/6wSCv2C54b
