Should Private School (k-12) be Abolished in the United States?

Yes, of course. It's impossible for "equality of opportunity" to exist as long as private schools exist.

No child deserves a better education just because their parents make more money or have better connections.

Unless you plan to remove all children from their parents and raise them in orphanage, the children will still get those benefits.

Yes, because then people will start to care about improving public schools instead of just yelling "VOUCHERS!" and running away from the problem.

That's like (warning hyperbole) suggesting murdering all politicians and lawyers so that people will find their own solutions to their problems.
