Jivanka and their socialite friends will all take hundreds of thousands of dollars in deductions on this annually in a sickening concentration of taxpayers paying for excess and luxury for a few.
Yeah, public schools are expensive and mediocre, but we are all burdened with paying for them—not just those with children.
“Yeah, public schools are expensive and mediocre, but we are all burdened with paying for them—not just those with children.”
That is a mere obvious fact. What makes it right, that “public” schools get to consider it their monopoly? Zero, zip, nada.
So what if “Jivanka and............” (whomever) may benefit from the tax deduction, so will tons of hardworking middle class parents that skimp on many things so that they can pay a tuition for their kid in private school ‘cause their public schools are so bad. You’d have us not let them have the tax deduction just ‘cause you want to play class-warfare and deny it to “Jivanka and...........”?
Sorry, the tax deduction does not look at income, and given that the expenditure of parents for K-12 school tuition spams the income range, why should it?
