Public education does not exist for the benefit of students or for the benefit of their parents. It exists for the benefit of the social order.
We have discovered as a species that it is useful to have an educated population. You do not need to be a student or have a child who is a student to benefit from public education. Every second of every day of your life, you benefit from public education.
So let me explain why I like to pay taxes for schools, even though I don't have a kid in school: It's because I don't like living in a country with a bunch of stupid people.
---John Green

公眾教育並不是為了學生或是家長的利益而存在,而是為了整體的社會秩序(的利益)存在。
我們已經覺察到身為一個種族,擁有受教育的群眾是相當有用的。
你並不需要自己成為一個學生或是有小孩才能從公眾教育當中獲益。你人生當中的每分每秒,你都從大眾教育中獲益。
所以讓我說明一下為何我樂意繳稅給學校,就算我自己家中沒有就學中的小孩,因為我不想要活在一個充滿笨蛋的國家。
