American public education - myths exploded

[Meech]

[ QUOTE ]
Why should some who do not utilize public schools have to pay for public schools, while others who do not utilize public schools not have to?

[/ QUOTE ]

Cause those snotty little brats that you are paying for now, will be funding the nurse who wipes your ass down the road?

Or, because it's in the countries best interest to have an educated society?

Or, so we can maintain a standard of living which we are accustomed to?
