The Proper Function Of Government

(2) The establishment of a monetary system and a standard of weights and measures so that courts may render money judgments, taxing authorities may levy taxes, and citizens may have a uniform standard to use in their business dealings.

I consider public education a function of government insofar as it can be considered an extention of that. Beyond standard weights and measures lies a necessity for establishing a common language, terminology, grammar and syntax, and making it common knowlege, as well as the basic knowlege of mathematics and science needed to deal with the technology those business dealings will employ and rely on.
