The other big problem with the tax one district and give it to another district is that the person taxed has no vote in the recipient district. We fought a war about this taxation and representation thingie.
How about we educate two kids per family and if someone chooses to have more children, they pay for them. I don't like paying for some family with eight kids in the system.

Too bad you don't like paying for 8 kids in the system. When the state MANDATES under penalty of law that children have to attend public school unless their parents are willing to educate their children in an alternative setting (as well as paying taxes for schools they don't use), then you, the taxpayer, are obligated to pay for their education. Many people who have NO children in the system realize that they have to pay school taxes whether they like it or not.
If you don't like it, lobby to get rid of compulsory education laws.
