This is a sore point for me, not only do I 100% fund my own child's education, she is homeschooled by my stay at home wife who quit her double minimum wage full time job to do it.
It's a sore point for me too; once upon a time I had a pile of rental properties that were taxed at triple the homestead rate. I pumped many thousands of dollars into the local school district (for which I've never had a kid enrolled) while Mr. and Mrs. Cottontail down the street with their huge brood not only contributed but a fraction of what I did to the school via the property taxes, they probably skipped out on income taxes altogether due to all those deductions while at the same time the gummint ran off with about 30% of my income. Butthurt? Yeah, one could say that.
