There is a lot of talk these days about tax dollars being used to fund private and/or parochial schools. This debate has gone on for decades. I have this to say on the subject:
People who send their children to these schools are taxpayers! Yes, taxpayers would be funding these initiatives. I repeat: The people who send their children to these schools are taxpayers! We (and our parents who sent us to these schools as well) all paid tuition to these schools. And, guess what? We paid taxes, too. Imagine that! So I guess our taxpayer dollars went to fund public schools that our children did not attend. Again, I say: Imagine that! Why can’t it be (considered) a kind of reciprocal arrangement? Imagine that!
