 I'd pay double for the little buggers if they had drivers education!

Where in the US is this "excellent school system" that you love to support? 
Or do you mean you would love to pay taxes if your community had an excellent 
school system?  The school systems throughout the US are being dumbed down to 
the point US students are unable to compete with their counterparts in 
mathematics and science.  Social promotions are now the rule and pretty soon 
the Federal government will pass another law that prohibits employers from 
even asking if prospective employees have graduated from high school.
