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!
Single payer socialized schooling has no place in a capitalist society.

School taxes, property taxes, and taxes on labor should all be repealed. Conservatives who oppose paying for deadbeats on welfare should oppose all of them. It’s hypocritical to favor school and property taxes because you personally benefit from them.
If these taxes were eliminated, most who have children would be able to educate their children for much less than the taxes they pay. There would be a free market and the quality of education would be much higher. Without confiscatory tax levels, many families would be able to live comfortably on one income with one parent staying home to provide homeschooling.
Property taxes are a particular abomination. It is like paying extortion to the government in order to keep the home that you have already bought and paid for.
