Interestingly, I've read many articles arguing that a liberal arts degree is the new high school diploma. While we forget that there are many suburban and rural public schools doing very well in preparing students, but the vast majority of urban schools are abject failures. It's a cultural problem of gov over dependents, fatherless homes and children having children. It's a lack of personal discipline and responsibility, no amount of public spending will change this.
Public spending on education in constant dollars per student: 1961-62 $2808 1907-08 $10441
Not so anti-education.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
