I was torn between lower taxes and getting rid of Robin Hood. For me and my family, getting rid of Robin Hood would lower my outlays, as "pay to play" fees could be reduced or eliminated. Of course, reducing my property taxes by a third would be a good thing, too.

My kids go to Coppell HS, where over 30% of our school taxes go to other districts.
