The issue with privatization is that you are going to eventually have "woke" mega-corporations buy up the private schools, and they will become even more difficult to manage than public schools in many cases, once they reach near monopolization

I don't agree. This, I think, is comparable to UK hotels selling out to the government and NGO's to house migrants for wild amounts of money. You could do serious damage to that by cutting taxes and programs, even without directly targeting that one in particular. But that's just the supply side. The demand side is building enough cultural momentum to push people to reject the bribes in the first place, same thing you do with mask mandates.

The right typically doesn't win on culture war issues because it typically never fights them, but in situations like that, you need to push the value of the privately owned small business refusing to sell out to the big Leftist corporation. "Don't be a fucking sell-out" needs to be a rightist mantra.

We need to focus on building a heroic narrative around a single man who stands up to corporations and business to protect his family, friends, and community.

There is no reason to think private schooling would defy current trends toward consolidation and monopolization that are happening in the wider economy, doubly so when there is a school privatization lobbying effort going on.

current trends toward consolidation and monopolization that are happening in the wider economy

Hard disagree on that one. If anything, the past 70 years has shown corporations intentionally segmenting themselves into allied syndicates. Almost nothing is a pure monopoly anymore. A good example is General Motors. To say they are a car company anymore is a bit of a stretch. They are more akin to a financial company that orders the manufacturing of cars. What used to be "General Motors factories" are now "Factories that take manufacturing orders from General Motors". Factories now work with GM as if they were vendors, rather than an integral part of the industrial process. More like franchises than factories.

More and more, there is business-to-business economics at every level. No one company seems to make one product (start to finish) for consumers in a vertical monopoly. Everyone works by a contract with everyone else.

You're far more likely to see that reflected in education as colleges prove to be worthless. Your private schooling is going to result in something akin to certification and examination prep for industries and specific vendors. Even the largest companies on earth don't want to consolidate into education because it's too much of an investment for too low of a return. They just want to set the standards and let the schools do the work.

With education, as an industry, the only monopolies are the state.

allied syndicates

That's a monopolization/consolidation trend, not the opposite. What that would like in education is schools owned by Bill Gates and George Soros buying their pozzed textbooks from the same place.

financial company that orders the manufacturing of cars

Financialization has been a disaster and enables centralization and lack of competition.

Even the largest companies on earth don't want to consolidate into education because it's too much of an investment for too low of a return.

It's the true-believing ideologues like Soros that are going to be most prone to doing this.

It's not a consolidation trend. It's gone from vertical monopolies to syndicates and vendors. It's become the norm for parent companies to segregate out child companies to do specific work that operate as subsidiaries. They're literally breaking up the central control of the company.

I don't disagree with your complaint on fiancialization, but it's less centralized than a vertical monopoly.
