Why is the US blamed and not Iran's socialist policies which occurred 30 years later, after the revolution?

"Following the nationalizations in 1979 and the outbreak of the Iran–Iraq War, over 80% of the economy came under government control.[34]"

Look at the official GDP/capita numbers.

France: 43,658.98

Germany: 51,203.55

Mississippi: 48,744*

I was off on Mississippi but they are still very close to Germany's, which is good considering they are the poorest state in the USA.

- The schools must be accredited.

- Mississippi is richer than Germany and France without progressive social policies. Since you are questioning my motives, do you have a concern for the poor yourself?

Europe is very progressive in all those issues but they're still poorer than Mississippi.

You're right that they're public schools. School choice would allow parents to choose these other public options in addition to private schools.

And? The poor are allowed to choose food options for their kids but not schools? Please elaborate.

- There are many non-religious private schools like magnets and charters.

- The schools must be accredited.

I can't find one good reason to restrict a poor student from choosing a magnet or a charter school over their local public school.

Larger cars are due to fuel economy regulations. You can thank your government for this.
