I would say the amount of funding the US education system as a whole currently has is adequate to achieve much better average results than are currently being produced. That does not mean that there are no individual schools/districts which need more money to efficiently achieve better results than they are now. It also does not mean that removing money from the system will not further reduce its efficacy. You can't fix US education by pouring more money into it, but you're also not going to fix it by dismantling it. The source of the primary problem isn't the education system, it's poverty.
