I am patriotic. I live in America. Thomas Jefferson probably went so school in some sort of little red school house. Built by his community. Whatever school supplies they had were provided by his community….and the school teacher who was paid by whatever the community could grow, produce, chickens etc was provided by guess who? The community. Yes Thomas Jefferson believed and supported the public school system.

I also know that in order for this country to operate in fashion we are all accustomed to we must ALL pay taxes. When our children need anything for schools, I think the only answer is for every parent to pitch in. Generally this means higher taxes. My kids are worth it.
