"The money that was allocated to roads could have been allocated to public schools - therefore roads steal money from public schools!"
"You could have spent that money at Safeway yet you chose Trader Joe's!

You're taking money away from Safeway!"

*if we were residentially assigned to government-run grocery stores that we had to pay for regardless of whether they opened their doors for business
Private schools have been fighting to reopen

Teachers unions have been fighting to remain closed

The difference is one of incentives

One of these sectors gets your money regardless of whether they open their doors for business.
If a grocery store doesn't reopen families can take their money elsewhere

If a school doesn't reopen families should similarly be able to take their children's education dollars elsewhere.
