As the parent of two boys I completely agree, however the burden of childcare and/or one parent not being able to work is huge.
Free childcare for all, and start kids in school when they're ready would be my platform.

Between federal income tax, state income tax, sales tax, property tax, school tax, vehicle registration, tolls, permits and fees we lose a massive part of the money we earn.
If this tax burden was significantly reduced, it would give many families the choice to have a parent stay home and focus on raising the kids.
This sounds like a better outcome than government run childcare.

Right, because government-run healthcare works so terribly everywhere else in the developed world. /s
