Human beings were not meant to learn about the world in the way we make them learn. I hate that discourse around public school and college is focused on funding them MORE rather than stopping all the horrible stuff we do/finding an alternative

I feel like we're at war and one candidate says we should build our own nukes and the other candidate wants free nukes for all with public funding and I'm just like hey maybe we shouldn't be at war at all guys?

This, and then when you go look at what the "anti war" movement has to say, 95% of it is building biological weapons instead of nukes.

Bernie is the strongest anti-war candidate, so it seems a bit odd to paint his policies as "free nukes for all" (I assume he is who you are referencing?). Among other examples, he recently called on the world to spend all the money we are spending on war fighting climate change.

Not an expert, but regarding primary education: a major factor is student/teacher ratios. Higher ratios allow teachers to focus more on individual needs and interests, which leads to better results. But this directly requires higher funding. It's pretty straightforward.
