	Are you saying that a major grocery chain (read private school -
	they're the ones with the money) should get tax breaks in order
	to give the corner mom&pop store (read poor public school system)
	a little better competition ?

	Look at the cost of education in the public school system (per
	student) compared to what you pay for private education.  Double
	the tax base and I'll bet public schools still have trouble
	competing.
