You subsidize public education for other people’s daughters and sons now.
Very true, through my tax dollars, shared equally by others. But the new paradigm, written by the Republicans and “talking pointed” all over the place for the last few weeks, is that anybody taking a deduction that someone else can’t take is being subsidized by those taxpayers not taking that deduction. That’s the SALT deduction removal justification, and it applies everywhere. Or at least it does to those with any intellectual integrity.
