There is almost nothing that the government does which private industry couldn’t do more morally, cheaper and more efficiently. The Brookings Institute’s John Chubb once set out to find out how many bureaucrats work in the central administrative office of the New York City public school system. It took him 12 phone calls to find someone who knew the answer and would tell him: 6,000. Chubb then called the Archdiocese of New York to find out how many bureaucrats it takes to run the city’s Catholic schools, which educate one fifth the amount of students the public schools do:

“Chubb’s first telephone call was taken by someone who did not know the answer. Here we go again, he thought.

“But after a moment she said, ‘Wait a minute; let me count.’ Her answer: 26.”

What Paul doesn’t point out is that, with private competition, schools would be answerable to parents and couldn’t carry out multicultural indoctrination at will.
