We're actually going to fund them well, and we're hopefully going to be better at not sucking at everything than US government.
Have you ever been to a Public hospital?

Do you have any thoughts on education?
- We should have a mostly public school system funded by taxes and provided to families free of charge for children ages 3-18, grades K through 12 plus preschool.
- A national standards board would create relatively high standards that all schools (public and private) must follow.
- Some private charter schools should be within the public system.
- School attendance should be mandatory between ages 5 and 17.
- Teachers employed at public schools should be payed based on the performance of their students.
- College at a public university should be provided free of charge to any student passing a certain (relatively low) threshold on a national standardized test, with smaller grants provided to students receiving lower scores.
