I find there are benefits to spending on education! What would you prefer to do with that money?

I also find there are benefits to spending (on my) education. But if we can't show benefit for a specific kind of public spending, is it justified to take other's money and spend it on "education" in a way which has no measurable impact? I don't think so.
