Your view, while understandable from a personal standpoint, is fucked up. The way schools are funded means that poor districts get very little funding, while wealthy white district get plenty. This leads to worse education in poor areas and better education in more wealthy areas. Is this how we should really be handling this?
We live in a society. Part of that is your dime paying for stuff that benefits other people. You also get plenty of stuff on other's dimes. Stop being so selfish. The real fix is to increase funding globally, ideally on the dime of the ultra-wealthy (who are going to complain that's it's on their dime, but I don't give a fuck).
Disgusting? Lol. You completely disregarded the fact that these were knowing and willing tax dodgers deliberately and fraudulently attending schools they were not allowed to. They‘re not poor, they can afford to maintain separate residences in two states. Get your reading comprehension in gear.
Completely missed the point to white knight some unneeded righteousness. I have Zero problem with people unable to pay for education getting an education, but that‘s not what's happening here, and I‘m well aware of how school funding works.
