Why not? Why shouldn't we all chip in a little so that education can be available for the citizens of our country?So basically what you saying that in order to ensure opportunity we must entitle them to the fruits of others labor.
Yeah, that doesn't really work.
It seems to me that the educational system is a significant national security matter and a significant economic matter.
Is there some way that the US would be better off with weaker national security and economic footing?

Am I wrong about the impact of education on the capacity to be technologically savvy and innovative?
What's the bit that I am missing?
How is it not in the vital interests of a democracy in the modern world to have a well-educated populace?
