Get StartedIowa has been the education leader for several decades, but is now starting to fall behind. The question we have not addressed is "why". The "why" I believe is because we have gotten complacent. Education is not just formal education, but all education from kindergarten through retirement. All Iowan's should have the best education from their schools, and that doesn't start with funding, but starts with allowing for choice in which schools their children attend. I believe that vouchers can help parents make the best choice for their children. Additionally, we must continue to support programs of lifelong learning, such as DMACC which is a shining example of what one learning institution can accomplish.
There should never be a choice to either attend a doctor or save money. We must continue to have healthcare that is accessible for everyone. That doesn't mean that it would be free, rather we must find unique ways to have access to healthcare. For example, what if you could access healthcare by volunteering a certain number of hours. We must not just think outside the box, we must eliminate the box.
