Frankly, I will never send my son to a government school. Either I will be sending him to a private school, inside or outside the US, or he will be homeschooled. There are tons of groups around where parents of homeschooled kids can pool their resources and knowledge to have their kids taught they way they want to.... Not have it dictated by the government.
On the other hand, if parents want to send their kids to government schools that is their choice.

Really the father of the modern cpu went to free public college in NY.
"When Andrew S. Grove fled Hungary in 1957 after the Soviet invasion there, he was 20, knew little English and had no money. But he found his way to the City College of New York, where tuition was free, and three years later graduated at the top of his engineering class. He went on to be a founder of the Intel Corporation."

"their kids taught they way they want to.... " You mean brain washed.
