    Judging by your reaction the whole concept is beyond you. Why wouldnt it improve the education of the poorest?????

    What do you mean it will cost too much money? if everyone had the education that you or I had then there would be no welfare payouts, a healthier society, no jobless, virtually no crime.

    We buy food (more important than anything) by having choices. Even though we have 6/7 retailers to choose from it is an incredibly efficient and customer focussed form of provision.

      In a free market economics text book written for free marketeers it all sounds good !

      I'm not saying there isn't some worth in what you say but the free markets can't magically solve big social issues in the text book manner you describe.

        In the harsh world of basic human instinct and economics, if people's well being and livelihood depends upon them looking after customers who can take their business elsewhere it is good.

          There is no truth in it, but it is scientific fact
          The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

          But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
