The problem is that different places would have different levels of funding. Long Island has some very poor school districts right next to some very rich school districts. It would make more sense to have the funding not be so local. Also, property and sales taxes are rather regressive.
It is important to note that the primary reason why emergency room visits are so expensive for patients is that they have to treat everyone, even people who can't pay. Obviously a universal health care system would make that system be less crazy.
