>Everyone gets to go to school for free, your taxes should be thought of as paying off your own education. Are you sure you want to make the argument that a public school education cost you many many times what a private school education would paid over a lifetime of taxes? Of course not. There is nothing wrong with the argument you are paying for other people's kids. You are. It's a net good for society. I personal don't want roving gangs of uneducated youths who today are confined to schools all day, this is a big win for everyone. The day-prison system works well unless you're really interested in high quality education. Deal with it, don't make weird excuses and pretend scenarios (like mine above).
