I respectfully disagree. If someone’s getting, say, rental assistance, the gov’t check that goes to the landlord pays their “fair share” of the school tax.

In fact, if you do have a job and are not getting free rent, you’re not only paying your “fair share” of the school tax, you’re paying the “fair share” of the school tax of the people who ARE getting free rent.

Same for retail sales taxes. In fact, since people may spend their EBT money at Walmart, that gov’t money not only pays the retail sales tax, but since some of Walmart’s profits go to pay their corporate taxes, the gov’t money then pays for Walmart’s “fair share” of taxes.

All of which, of course, comes out of YOUR pocket.

Yes, you are right...for those on the dole, we are all paying for them.
