Because not every parent can afford private school and it is in a state's best interest to make sure their residents are properly educated.
Then why aren't public schools actually educating students adequately? Look at the link to the NAEP chart I posted. U.S. public education is a sad, cruel joke.
You are fortunate that you have the unlimited ability to pay cash at the point of service, should you become seriously ill or injured.
That's what low-cost catastrophic insurance policies are for. However, they're no longer Obamacare compliant.
Some have done the math and determined it's still cheaper to continue to buy the low-cost catastrophic policy, fund routine medical care out-of-pocket, and pay the Obamacare tax penalty, than it is to waste over ten thousand dollars annually on Obamacare premiums and deductibles before anything is even covered.
I can only presume you think I get it off the magical money tree then.
My refusal to pander to your nonsense isn't a license to lie about what I think. I've made clear what I think.

If it's not from the consumer then where am I getting those funds?
This is a simple question, where are they coming from? Did I find them under a rock? The magical money tree? Merlin the magician?
Let's try this a different way, suppose we take our item I'm selling for $1 and the government adds a 10 cent licensing fee for me to sell that item. I increase the cost of the item to $1.10
You seem to be under the misconception that you get to determine the parameters of the discussion, get to impose by fiat the premises of the inquiries, get to dumb down reality to fit your corrupted preferences, and get to judge what is and is not relevant. You are a partisan in the discussion - you have a vested interest in supporting your own (albeit corrupted) perspective. As such, the petulant assumption that you have reason to moderate here is indicative more of the default right-wing perspective of elitist entitlement than of anything real. If you want to have a further discussion, then you're going to have to abide by the parameters of the discussion that I outlined. Otherwise, you can have your say, and I'll have mine.
The problem is what you think is neither realistic or logical.
How convenient... you've deceived yourself into thinking that the only thoughts that are worthwhile are the ones you agree with. Presumptions like that make the point I made earlier even clearer.

The only thoughts or opinions that are worthwhile are ones based in reality. You have offered a very unrealistic opinion based on nothing.
