Exactly. I was willing to let that skate.

But, EVERYONE who pays taxes pays for education. Parents of current students as well as those who never have children and who have long retired.

Boy, you got that right my friend.

I’m just looking at my property tax bill that is due 10/1. My C(r)ook County tax bill says 68.11% of my taxes go to public education.

Now, we live in the suburbs but my wife and I are retired and our children are grown and on their own. We put them through Catholic schools and paid a pretty penny. An investment we do not regret.

But now, I say enough is enough and I’m done with it.
