I have two major arguments against privatizing education. First and foremost, I have an issue with profit being the motive of educational bodies.
So did the communists. Excellent...

Without a profit motive, how exactly do you expect an operation to attract customers? What motivates them to provide a superior service? What is the impetus to provide that service at a price point that their target customers can afford?
Good God man.
Secondly, "choice" exists in the public school system. Most major public education system in the country has merit-based magnet schools and competition
Bullshit. I'm talking about educational choice for all students at all levels of ability. And your 'magnet' schools are still run by bureaucrats.
Pass.
I went to "magnet" schools from 6th grade on, and got a better education in high school than most people get in college.
Not provable and statistically irrelevant.
