There seems to be a bit of narrative about "not burdening taxpayers" for a few years while students are in school. I have to ask, what happens once they finish school? Do they not join the legion of taxpayers? Is it only CURRENT taxpayers that have a say in this, and not say all voters? I do think there is a lot of upside in letting people pick what and where to study. It's a collective investment in our future generation.

  Oh? It seems one becomes a taxpayer at about $12k or so. It seems that someone at $20k is well over that. Do people on the low end of the tax scale not deserve to be educated?
