This is spot on, why do I (a taxpayer) need to pay for someone's else optional higher education that they chose to do?


- Do I need to pay for my neighbors beauty school classes next?

- How about the dude down the street who wants lessons to fly planes?

- Where does it end?

I completely understand where you're coming from. As a fellow taxpayer, it can feel frustrating to see our hard-earned money going towards something that we might not necessarily benefit from. However, I do believe that investing in education, regardless of whether it's mandatory or optional, can have long-term benefits for our entire society. By helping others achieve their educational goals, we're also investing in a more skilled and knowledgeable workforce, which can ultimately lead to economic growth and a better standard of living for all. It's a complex issue, but I think it's worth considering the bigger picture when it comes to funding education.
