Full State Funding for K-12 Education

I think full state funding is plausible. But only on my terms. Lots of ideas flying around about full state funding. There are many of traps and pit-falls with full state funding: What is: Education? Extracurricular? Non-state required courses? AP classes? The Arts? Cultural education? Of course, if you are part of the education system you can spend any money given to you. But, people need to start defining education before any funding scheme can succeed. I am developing a plan to define what full state funding should be. See www.fullstatefunding.com
