Dumb move.
More people have to homeschool first before taxing can be addressed.
More people have to homeschool. More people have to homeschool. More people have to homeschool.
He should just pay the tax and put his efforts into getting other people to homeschool.
The ONLY attention homeschoolers should cause at this point is how GREAT their CHILDREN do and how it is not nearly as difficult as folks are led to believe.
I am not concerned with paying taxes to send other people's children to school. We are blessed to live in a country where everyone is required to go to school, where a huge majority of the students learn to read, and as a result they have an opportunity to succeed. I am so thankful I do not live in a country where the poor are illiterate and have no chance of changing their circumstances.
Even though our schools need improvement, and a free market education system would be wonderful for the purpose of making these improvements, don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. We live in an amazing country, and part of what makes it amazing is that every child has the opportunity to be educated. Let's focus on what will improve our schools, not complain because we have to pay taxes on something we do not use.
he did pay the tax and make a pro-homeschool statement
so how is doing what you advised a dumb move?
Maybe he's smart enough to do two things at once.
