You should seriously revisit this statement.
The Founding Fathers recognized the need for public education particularly Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton and Adams.
Before you run your mouth you had better get the facts of the matter.
I would looked into the type of public system they endorsed and the regulation upon parents they endorsed if I where you.
The founding fathers endorsed taxation as well, that in no way legitimizes our current system of direct and in-direct taxation. Have you seen the history scores coming out of public schools? Did you go to a public school?
Jefferson constantly pushed for the creation of the University of Virginia, a state controlled and funded school and considered its establishment as one of his greatest acts. In addition, he wanted public schooling which would feed into this university those talented but poor children. Their education was to be paid for by the State.
This was not done for decades after J.'s demise.
Washington and Hamilton early on recommended the establishment of a federally funded public university. It was rejected by Congress.
