Systemic Bailout

Spunky Homeschool has an interesting post that quotes from another (very good) commentary, but she goes on to point out that:

One of the biggest entitlements ever put forth by the government is compulsory public education. ... the vast majority of Americans rely on the state to educate their offspring.

And what else is that but a reliance on government entitlements, benefits, bailouts, if you will...  It's brief, but well worth the read.
