Rob Fernandes is absolutely right. Forcing property owners to pay for government schools should be stopped. It is an unjust practice. Property taxes by default means one never really owns their property. It’s time to come up with a new system to fund local governments.

Two points:

1) Government schooling is a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination. Why?

Answer: Because it is **impossible** to have a religiously, culturally, and politically neutral education. Such a state of neutrality can not be found in the mind of any sentient human and absolutely is impossible in any school. When government runs schools and **FORCES** children to attend and taxpayers to pay for it, government is imposing a NON-neutral religious, political, and cultural worldview on captive children and forcing taxpayers to pay for it!

2) You are absolutely correct. No one in this nation actually **owns** property. We lease it from the government. That is what property taxes are: RENT TO THE GOVERNMENT LANDLORD!
