    They’ve conditioned people to be so against taxes that you have a significant portion of the public saying things like, “why should my taxes fund public schools if my children graduated 20 years ago?”

    This country is full of rotten people.

        It’s a very common sentiment. It comes from people with no kids as well, which is bad enough, but when it’s boomers who had kids go to public school for k-12, it’s just another level.
