At the present time, the concept of location based school assignment is conducive to laziness, lack of desire to improve the school system and reinforces the mediocre students over the ones that want to improve their lot in life. We in America have school systems that have reinforced lack of authority, with lack of education while other countries such as China and India are getting ahead. It is easy to blame foreigners and anyone who does not look «American» [Anglo-Saxon or African American] for the fact that our educational system does not work. Even Bill Cosby has written about the how the form of education has left the people in a victimization mode in his book: «Come On People: On the Path from Victims to Victors» which talks about the need for morals, improving education, self respect, and self improvement.
The solution is simple by taking away the decision of the school away from the politicians and turn it over to the parents and responsible educators who knows what is best for their children. Another solution would be to privatize the public school system and have the public school system compete for the best students this would improve the educational process while the parents must concentrate on the teaching of morals, self respect, respect for others, and self improvement in the house. The students who want to learn will function in such a competitive environment. The ones that cannot function or do not want to sacrifice at the present time can find work elsewhere or find a school that is willing to accept mediocrity.

The idea of the taxpayer funding political campaigns is an unfair idea which does not help the taxpayer that has to pay Federal, State, County, and Municipal Taxes and hurts parties such as the Libertarian and Green Party who do not receive Federal Funds and have to overcome obstacles such as Ballot Access Laws and Unfair Practices such as discrimination by the Republicans and Democrats against the Libertarians and Greens as well as the Independent Paty such as the one by Jesse Ventura.
Why should a taxpayer have to fund political campaigns when the political parties and their candidates receive money from lobbyists and special interest groups such as labour unions that are sycophants of their political party or movement? The person who contributes to a political party, and a political campaign should do it out of their own desire and heart without the need for taxes or forcing the individual to contribute

Another reason is that the Libertarian and Green Party who receive money from private donations instead of Government Money campaign on an uneven playing field which removes competition from the Democratic and Republican Party. It is unfair that the Republican and Democratic Party talk about the need for a free market and love for the American People and yet they repress the competition by using taxpayer money to flood the country with their propaganda of hate, lies, and deceit at the expense of an American Public that no longer has contact with the Republican or Democratic Party.

Another reason why taxpayer funding for political campaigns are a bad idea lies in one cardinal issue. The political party is a private organziation which exists to elicit votes from the general public after proposing sweet nothings in the hope that the general public captures the bait and vote for it. The political party employs politicians who run as candidates, lobbyists who study the American Psyche of the moment, secretaries, and media experts who help in this process. Political Parties are Private Organizations with brand names and symbols just like Esso, Exxon, Mobil, and Exxon Mobil have the tiger, and the pegassus symbol. At least the Libertarian Party of Arizona has recognized this reality and have an official name which is The Libertarian Party of Arizona Incorporated. The way to solve this problem of the taxpayer funding political campaigns would be to change the status of political parties to private corporation, private organizations, and private conglomerates.
