Hmm...but to have education for all, you have to have public education. Which requires taxes. Perhaps you consider education one of the few things which should be publicly funded? If so, do you also support free/reduced-cost college education? What about health care?--it seems strange to me that many people support public education but not public health care. People can live (on a basic level, anyway) without much knowledge, but many literally cannot live, even on a basic level, without health care. All government services require revenue. I never did understand the "tax-and-spend liberal" insult. We tax...so we can spend...on worthwhile services. (Granted, the whole system could be run a lot more smoothly and efficiently. I'm neither an economist nor a productivity expert, so I can't really fathom how that could be done.)
