No. They realized their money was being wasted on school bureaucrats, poor teachers, kids with bad parents, or to subsidize the rich with the UC system. >I've seen bumperstickers as long ago as 1980 that said "If you can > read this you probably didn't go to a California Public School" ... Yeah, and if your parent taught you to watch TV, instead of reading, you're gonna do great.... Schools vary. Thowing money at it hasn't worked.
