huh? public school is free
And underfunded
That comes with the territory of not being relevant to short term corporate profits and also being paid for by taxes. Though if and how underfunded depends on the county, since it's usually paid for primarily by local property taxes.
I mean it's not free -- it's funded by property taxes in most US states.
States have different ways of adding more cash to funding; CO and WA for example put a ton of their weed tax money to roads and schools
Free as in freedom. But underfunded.
At least as not as bad as healthcare
