There seems to be this mistaken belief that simply because someone pays taxes they are entitled to something. In any case if that is your argument let me put it another way. You said your husband pays taxes. That implies to me that you don't. If that is correct then because you don't pay taxes you should get no benefit at all from the government. So any benefit your child may be getting should be cut in half because only your husband pays taxes. You should get no kind of family payment on the basis that you pay no taxes. The unemployed should not be given any assistance because they pay no taxes. See where I'm going. Nobody is entitled to anything simply because they pay taxes.
Obviously I don't pay taxes - I am SAHM. My husband works and works for the whole family.
I didn't say that the unemployed shouldn't get benefits. I do believe in supporting people who can't work etc. through taxes.
But since we do pay taxes and choose to send our children to private school why shouldn't the private schools be funded too.
They aren't completely funded, if funding was taken away there would be an awful lot of strain placed on the public system because the private students would be going back to the public system (or homeschooled but that's a whole different situation together)
