Do you think having taxes pay for our current grade 1-12 educational system, which is slipping further behind other countries in the world (We're #25! We're #25!) is also bad? Should students and/or parents have to pay or borrow for that, too?
Investing in further education is investing in America. Other countries do that, why don't we do that?
