The US poverty rate is at a historic low.

Poverty is lower in market based economies.

Free educations for all the hardworking students would reduce poverty even more.

People with a good education usually earn more money.

There is no free education.

Teachers must be paid, curriculums don’t develop themselves, and buildings are required.

NOTHING is free. Everything has a cost. Taxpayers cover the stuff nobody else does.

Aren't they given "free" education K-12?

How many more years should they be "given"?

Maybe K-12 isn't teaching them enough, thanks to Unions and Carter's DOE, both of which are essentially useless.

That's why I tightened my belt and put my son in a private, non-religious school.
(from which he graduated Valedictorian)
