Quote:So in your opinion, is a free market solution a better idea, or raising taxes and letting the government handle it?

 

Here is another sub-topic regarding education.  Some have mentioned a few thoughts regarding it earlier in this thread.  What about the issue of public education K-12?  The few speeches that I've watched by Bernie Sanders, I don't recall him addressing the issue at all.  Marco Rubio has addressed it both in interviews as well as in his book.  This can almost be further broken down, but what I'm addressing is K-12 education and choice for parents regarding their child's education.

I have no faith in the the free market to handle the problem (}on it's own) in anything other than short term money gaining manner. Leading to either a perversion of the system proposed by Rubio or abandoning when their profit margins are not as astronomical as with other investments opportunities. 

 

I personally think a better solution would be to provide the funding for public colleges from either taxes or spending reductions within the current funding. 

 

I am not aware of his stance or him making one at the moment on K-12

 

I have my own radical views on the matter requiring massive paradigm shifts in how we approach education the likes of which wouldn't help this discussion.
