[quote=patientrenter]Well, I am probably in jpnpb’s camp on this one. I’d rather pay for other people’s kids to be well educated than to have them grow up with their knuckles scraping the ground.
But:
1. Anyone who has a middle class income or more should pay for their own kids, in full, 100%. Grade the % down as the parents get poorer.

Just curious, but how do you account for the people already doing this? I attended school (ages 2-18) but never spent one day in public schools. My parents already paid all their taxes that support schools, then paid my tuition.
And the public schools I could have gone to are some of the best in the state. My parents had so much trouble with the public school system and its employees regarding my brother however, I was never allowed to go to public schools. So I just wonder, how do the piggs account for the families that are paying double cause they just dont trust the schools?
(BTW, they never have ever complained about paying double. They are able to, and are lucky enough to be able to say that, so please dont rag on them for “complaining” cause they are not. I am just wondering how people take into account the familys who already pay double for their kids to attend school.)
