I know it's counter intuitive, and many may disagree, but I'm of the mind that past a certain point, throwing more money at education doesn't actually make it better. It just adds more crap. Imagine if we cut funding and instead of all this Gender Ideology nonsense we could focus on teaching children, to you know, read, do basic math, basic literacy, basic financing, and so on.

Less money means schools need to fight harder to get and keep it. They need to justify themselves. More money means the goose gets fat, as it were. Though, I would say this is a bigger problem with Colleges and Universities than K-12, but there's no doubt in my mind that we're not getting our moneys worth. So why are we paying so much. Furthermore, I actually believe quality of education would go up, not down, if we cut funding.
