There's a long history and tradition associated with public schooling, prior to which education was only available to the wealthy minority.

Not really, (even it was easier to get an extensive amount of formal education for the wealthy), and to the extent that is considered a problem you can have government funding without government running it. Consider the difference between having food stamps and having government run food distribution centers, or the difference between having government pay for road construction, and having actual government employees build the roads.

Limited government doesn't have to be absolute bare-bones minimum government.

Your right, it doesn't; but I would like us to move closer to bare-bones to the extent it can be done.
