In my 30s now. Def more conservative. Paying more than $10k in property taxes that go towards schools where the children that I don’t have go to.
You live in a society???
I'm convinced that people who think like this don't even know how a society functions. Like, i bet if he answers he'll come back with "no, i don't want stupid people everywhere i just don't see why i should have to pay for schools my kids don't use" or something like that. They're kind of predictable in my experience.
The alternative is being surrounded by uneducated people, so this has never bothered me.
Underrated point!!
Would you rather pay more and keep people educated and busy... or pay less and have them find ways to occupy their time 🚓
If OP didn't want to pay those extra taxes they should have settled elsewhere where there is no nearby school IMO
