Hopefully this starts a nationwide trend. I didn’t move to a nice town to fund other schools. Get a job like the rest of us, pay taxes like the rest of us, have descent schools like the rest of us. This robbing Peter and paying Paul bs on a national level has gone to far.

In turn I should be able to opt out of funding public education if that’s the attitude right?

yeah dude absolutely! however, since our public education system is fully integrated into the social services package that YOU receive as a resident of your town, state, and country, in order to not be a hypocrite you would also need to do some little things like stop using public roads, sidewalks and spaces, stop using emergency response services such as 911, as well as refusing delivery of any and all utilities, including cable and electricity.

if this is too burdensome for you i guess you could also establish your own sovereign state where public education isn’t offered.

wow, you are quite literally too stupid to make fun of. Governor Sam Brownback is an actual person, a former governor of Kansas whose libertarian policies were so incredibly unpopular and destructive (they literally couldn’t even keep street lights on or cops on the payroll the state was so broke) that they were repealed less than 4 years after their introduction, and the state of kansas is still deeply in debt due to his policies.

also, asking out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on “right to work” laws?

Do you really not grasp how your kids 'descent schools' at the expense of the majority of the state having 'not descent' schools is going to eventually negatively affect you and your kids if you plan on staying in NH? Large pockets of this small state offering a second class education to kids who will become adults with poor educations translates into the state becoming an increasingly low economic area as a whole. That means less new business locating here to create enough 'descent' jobs, drops in property valuations, more crime, more untreated mental health and substance use issues, more money needed for social services, more homelessness, poor quality elderly and medical care, etc. If you're able to see beyond your immediate present, it directly benefits you and your kids to make sure other kids who will soon be adults running the economy and wiping your ass in the nursing home have a 'descent' education.

MA is calling your name. Seems you invite higher taxes and socialism. Let the strong survive.

Hopefully the school can teach your kids how to spell “decent” correctly.

Sorry I went to an underfunded school, if they were all privatized I would be on your level of grammatical corrections.

ArsenalBOS t1_j2er2c2 wrote

You went to an underfunded school and now you want to perpetuate that by reducing funding to poor schools? Really?

One of the reasons kids drop out of school is so they can work to help support their families....

We live in a nice town, and have really good schools and don’t think that we should be punished for that. We are perfectly OK with paying taxes. We saved up. We worked hard we moved to a nice town with great schools and a lot of resources for the kids. And a lot of really nice people in town.

If a person can't afford to move to a good school district, do their children deserve fewer resources and worse schools?

Do we deserve to have our resources taken away??? No.

Don’t take funding from our children.

Why do you have such a problem with affluent people and towns?

It's because of how you're deciding to represent them.

Edit: not to mention you're saying all this reprehensible shit on an alt.

That's what you'd be doing if you don't pay taxes that fund public schools.
