People who scraped together money for homes but not for children shouldn't have to pay for those who breed and won't pay for schools.

I'm with you a hundred percent on that one.
Austin public schrools are able to graduate a stunning 40% of those that enter HS, so I would put their incompetence up against anyone else's...we are also the minority here, as of two years ago.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind quite as much if the school systems were sanitary, safe, and intellectual hubs of activity. I'd feel my money were an investment in the future of the country. Now, I might as well take my paychecks and toss them in the toilet. Apparently, tons of our money goes to overhead and bureaucracy too... well, that's pretty much the case for everything, not just schools.
Just imagine how few would make it if they didn't keep passing kids that fail to keep them from feeling bad. Pathetic.
