Excellent ideas.

What about removing all government funding from all schools?

I don't think that will ever be feasible to remove the gov't funding of schools. Any pol who tried to do such a thing would be even less popular than one who raised taxes 25%.

The ridiculous notion that college education is absolutely essential to have a good life is so engrained in people, they'd throw a fit if someone dared change things up a little. Nowadays, college educations are worth even less. In many ways, half of today's undergraduate curriculum is devoted to bringing students up to the level of a former high school graduate.
