The U.S. govt. should build a massive set of ISPs that give free accounts to all citizens based on SSNs, and let anybody upload a course along with open-book tests and grading system that students and parents will be free to select, paying the authors royalties from tax moneys. That way for common subjects like 7th grade biology one lucky teacher can make a good living, while the legions of pikers and agitprop artists will have to get jobs driving Uber. Yes, there is the threat of leftist takeover of the courses, but we just have to insure that nobody is forced to take a course and is free to choose. The only govt. input is to fund commissions to grade/certify courses as covering the material adequately. It's still going to be a mess but the leftist loonies will have been put out of business. After costly school properties are sold off, there will be plenty of money to provide free Internet terminals to all students.</p><p><a
