I agree but it should be voluntary. Parents of enrolled children + supportive community members will continue to fund the program that they care about.

That's not how public services work or survive. What you're speaking to is libertarian naivete at best and selfishness at worst. Everyone benefits from a well educated society.

Everyone benefits from many things, that doesn't have any bearing on whether what he's saying will work or not.

I'm saying his idea won't work well. If anything we need more funding for education not relegating it down to volunteer based. And to your point if we have something that clearly benefits everyone we would be stupid to not fund it publicly.

If it benefits everyone we don't need to fund it publicly... because everyone stands to benefit from it existing.

You know, like UL.

So you're saying that your vision only works if it involves theft. All I'm asking is to make in consensual. Opt-in.
