You like to "leave things at that" with comments that mean nothing and go nowhere, so I would expect nothing less.
Choosing to pull your tax dollars from education, which, if allowed, I imagine others would follow suit, single people, couples with no kids, people sending their kids to private schools, would result in our schools being underfunded, thus harming the education the children at public school are getting.
I want the right to appoint my education dollars how ever I choose. If our schools end up up being underfunded, is that my responsibility? If that's the case, then don't tie education dollars to property taxes.
It's not about you just like every other issue you have problems with. Start there. You don't have to pay taxes...you choose to pay taxes. Take it up with the IRS ...your responsibilities led to irresponsible results by your own admission. Work on that and let actual parenting parents support the school systems along with adults who value an educated population as neighbors coworkers and friends. You're out of touch with how many young parents don't have "education dollars" to appoint. Pretty classist statement by you.
Your pastor parent didn't guide you from dropping out of high school early on so your argument makes no sense. You're proof parents can't dictate what education provides. And you've probably bitched about teachers and schools since you were required to do homework. Gotcha. This led to your jr high school level education. You failed yourself, the school didn't fail you and your parents didn't save you from that choice. All of a sudden you seem empowered to dictate policy over this.
Studies show that parents most vociferous about sex education belongs at home are the least likely to discuss sex with their children. This idea on the right that schools shouldn't teach anything. Only repeat what they say at home.
