I do not have children, and I never will, yet my property taxes still go toward paying for schools. I’m happy to have my taxes pay for roads, infastructure improvement, fire, police, and all the other municipal services that benefit me as a resident of the county.
The government needs to determine the cost of educating a child from kindergarten to high school, divide this by 18, and apply it as a yearly tax to parents. Children deserve an education, but children also put an additional strain on society. I should not be forced to pay for someone else’s decision to procreate.
Education has one of the best returns on investment of any tax. Now should it be specifically property tax? That is arguable.
Taxes are for things that provide a social good. Education of people is one of those things, and presumably you received it already but now don’t want to pay in?
You are describing children as a separate category from people, which makes no sense. All those children will, like you, grow up to be adults and will pay into the system. As adults of the past paid for you.
