Who Should Control Education Funding: Parents or Government?
Showing 5 Education Funding videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.
Commentator CJ Pearson outlined the ideological divide over education funding, arguing that whoever pays for a child's schooling ultimately controls its content, and that parents rather than the National Education Association or federal government should have that authority, citing Baltimore's roughly $21,000 per-student spending alongside poor outcomes as evidence that funding levels alone don't fix education. A separate video features Charlie Kirk debating a Texas A&M student over DEI, race-based admissions, and whether reduced standards for some groups undermine the meritocratic case for public education funding. Other videos in this pool include Kirk's rebuttal of a viral video attributing all racial disparities in education and wealth to systemic racism alone.
