Well, that's effectively what happens in European systems, where schooling is basically run entirely by the State and funding is mostly distributed on a per-pupil basis - higher-income taxpayers effectively subsidize poorer areas. So it is, in fact, feasible.
But Americans would probably call that illiberal or something.
- singlow 4y agoThat is what Texas does. Not 100 percent, but a majority of tax dollars for schools are paid to the state and redistributed to the districts based on attendance/enrollment. Rich areas might be able to use extra funds/donations for capital expenditures like fancier buildings or stadiums, but the tax money at largely redistributed.
