Your kid, your problem. How's that?

The Constitution of the State of Texas mandates public schools and that those schools must be funded.

Your solution is not serious.

My solution is for the parents to fund those schools. Or at least the educational part(bureaucracy, teachers and books). The rest of us can help fund the physical structures (buildings and maintenance).

"The Constitution of the State of Texas mandates public schools . . ."

The next time Texans vote FOR that open-ended proposition we keep seeing: "To eleminate archaic and redundant provisions (of the Texas State Constitution)", THAT proviso could be eliminated. To be replaced with: "You had it, you pay for it".

It may be mandated but why the hell should I have to pay for schools when I don't have kids, never have and never will?

It is taxation without representation, pure and simple. If I had kids then I could see it. Maybe.
