| But the rich are paying more of their income in taxes than all the other groups. How much more do you want them to pay?
High taxes will force rich people to hire sophisticated bankers to hide their money in offshore accounts, or they will totally move to a lower tax country. A lot of rich europeans move to Switzerland every year to escape high taxes from their native countries.
A lot of the public schools are broken in a lot of places, adding more money won't solve the problem. In New Jersey, some counties receive far more money than other counties, but the schools there have not gotten better--poor test scores, students dropping out, etc.
Money is not the problem. Public schools are not going anywhere. |
