Your quality and range of public services is directly related to your rate of taxes. You want to live in a nice place, it costs you money. Does it benefit you to "pay" to assist your neighbor in a time of need? yes. Pay now or pay later. The key is to invest well. I guess I am a socialist..or Norwegian wannabe. enjoy.

Bah! Home schoolin' aint always the best. It depends on the kid and the instruction. Wasnt that Mom that killed her sons with a rock to the head, homeschoolin?
Hey, Public school has its serious problems, look at the volume, but there are kids learning too. There are some damn good teachers and students in public schools, they dont get the press though. I have seen the bad and the great.

And, like 1910 was a golden year? Lots of muckraking going on for such a "happy" time. come on.

And for your taxes..The Institute of Museum and Library Services , a federal agency, funds (through grants) libraries and yes...museums. Lots and lots for digitization/preservation projects. go surf some now. Thats good news for public and home schools and all youse too.
