What sort of budgets do some of these private schools have? If they get 60% of the gov't funding plus thousands to tens of thousands per year for tuition they must be rolling in cash.
I agree with you here. I think that the argument of "imagine all of those kids in the public system..." is a little hollow. People putting their children in private schools aren't doing it to do a favour for everyone else. They have their own reasons to do so (which is totally fine), and they can pay for those reasons.
