More and more I come to believe that private schools have an inherent advantage over public schools. The very fact of being employed by a state-sponsored school, and coming to see the state as necessary to education, which is foundational to so much more, will tend to promote a perspective among teachers and administrators that the state is the source, the foundation, of social advancement and development.

But that perspective is profoundly wrong. Private action is the major driving force of innovation and economic advancement that increases living standards for a society.
