Rather than concoct different schemes to pay for them, some better questions would be;
Should all govt monopolies be abolished?
Should people pay only for what they use?
Should govt get out of the way of free market alternatives and let people spending their own money choose?
I say yes to all of the above.
If you say yes, how can some people enslave others?
Sorry, spending a lot on education isn't correlated to better educational outcomes. Some of the worst school districts in the country are among those that spend the most per student. Think Washington, DC, Camden, NJ, etc. Plus there was that famous Kansas City school funding experiment (funding was increased to $40,000 per student - there was no measurable improvement in educational.outcomes): https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...051-story.html
But that’s not the reason not to put more money into it.

So what you're saying is you're ok in putting money into something with no measurable benefit?
Cool, you can pay into the Gungnir life improvement fund, you send me your dollars, I'll send you my best wishes. I will personally guarantee you will receive absolutely no measurable benefit from this payment. DM me if you need details where to send your cash.

It's how I feel about all of these wars we've been in. We aren't getting anywhere as a nation in a collective sense with these wars, but yet they sure are as hell eating up a large chunk of our budgets, and it's not going to provide a good living or support for our enlisted men, but seems to be helping to fatten up the bank accounts of the defense contractors, many who are sponsors of many politicians.

The last 3 failed wars from Bush 1 and 2 could have sure paid for lots of roads and new bridges.

Presidents don’t have wars. They must be authorized by the Congress.
