A community featuring uplifting and wholesome news stories that overlook deeply ingrained systemic problems.
The rules:
1. Your post must be an unironic presentation of a wholesome story, but one that overlooks systemic failures that made the story possible in the first place. In other words, we want posts that highlight "Yay, the problem is solved!", but ignore "Wait, why was this a problem in the first place?" at the same time.
2. Re-posts will be removed at mod discretion.
3. Sitewide rules apply. Basically, (a) don't be a dick; (b) use the NSFW tag; (c) no spam; (d) don't attack people; and (e) don't abuse the report button.

Careful now, this is part of the thinking that people [backwardly] use to proselytize for more charter schools, homeschooling, the dissolution of the Department of Education, and a host of other stupid ideas.
They'll see this and say, "yeah, they shouldn't even be required to go to school! so they have to earn a wholesome Christofascist education" or some other nonsense.
Nevertheless, I agree. Food should be a right for everyone.
I’m fine with private schools competing with public services as long as:
Education, infrastructure, healthcare, military protection, and mails services are some of the core services taxpayers should be most happy to invest tax dollars in. These services should feel like we’re getting a great deal for our investment. If anyone wants to spend more on private sector businesses, that’s up to them. But not there’s no need to sabotage the publicly funded services.
