    So please tell me what individual right they are protecting by taking money from person A (you or I) and giving it to the unaccountable, government-staffed, education system (sorta person B)?

    Because ignorance and freedom are mutually exclusive. One destroys the other, if you are against public schools, you are siding with ignorance.

    It's funny how socialists say that I should leave this country. There are approximately 192 countries on Earth. There are exactly zero that are based on the principals of liberty and freedom like the United States.
    So why do I have to leave the last free nation on the Earth so you can destroy it?

    What's this? Don't like social studies either? There are fuck tons of places you can go and not give a shit about greater society. how does sending the US back to 1890 destroy it? I bet you were the guy who would bitch about how the rights of the 10 year olds in the coal mines were being infringed when child labor laws were passed.

    If you don't like the freedom and personal responsibility we have (had) in America--if you want to tax others to pay for your personal failures to educate yourself and your family, go to Europe.

    If you don't like the social safety nets and laws (that attempt) to ensure that everyone gets a fair chance at success, no matter your parents failures, go to Africa.

    On the other hand, if you find a private school that you want to send your kids to, you fill out a form and that money gets diverted to the private school.

    No. Public schools are not so a taxpayers child can have an education, they are so that the public can have an education.
    Also, those private schools are not their to teach, they exist to make money. As such, they would raise the tuition by $800 dollars to keep the proletarians out. When faced with a rising demand, you should raise prices before supply because it is cheaper.

    Do you think a 5% tax-hike would hurt WalMart? Maybe a bit, but they'd survive. Or do you think the hike would hurt the small 'mom and pop' clothing store on the corner? Do you think requiring employers to carry health insurance for every employee will hurt McDonalds or the guy on the corner with burrito stand?

    Don't pretend like you give a fuck. Who do you think will be hurt but a lack of public education? The Walton families children? Shit no, they go to private school anyway. The Burrito stand guy? Fuck yes. He can't afford that, and because he can't, his kids suffer. The cycle of poverty either continues, or Burrito-kun has to rent them to a child pornographer or rob banks to pay for it....

    don't want the government stealing my money

    Oh look, that again. When I get arrested for rape and murder is the government kidnapping me? When they fry my ass for it, are they murdering me? No, they are called different things for a reason: they are different things. Taxes are not theft, they are taxes.

    Then leave the country where there are no services and no taxes. Try Somalia, a purely-capitalist libertarian wonderland.

    I can take care of it myself.

    You are only able to say that because the privilaged life you were brought up in, what with public education (the reason you are able to write it), police protection (the reason gangs haven't ransacked you house and murdered you,.... But now you want to pull the ladder up so the younger generation can't have it.

    Logic is a third of math (the other two are number theory and set theory, you would no that if you weren't so uneducated), if you cannot understand anything beyond 'x+2=3, solve for x', you cannot be expected to have much higher level reasoning either.

    so. (For example, I absolutely suck at anything above basic algebra because I have no interest in math).

    I stopped reading right there and concluded that you are a retard who should not be allowed to vote, as with no grounding in math, you cannot have a good grounding in logic. But I guess that you only need much math to turn the television to the Fox channel at the time that Glenn Beck is on, so you have all the skill you need.

    Enjoy wallowing in your own ignorance you stupid, self-righteous fuck.

    That post is written by something that is so stupid, if I took its tiny brain and rolled it down the edge of a razor blade, it would be like a lone car going down a six lane highway. Clearly, you spend way too much time in darkened rooms in front of your seven-year-old computer turning a whiter shade of pale. Go outside once in a while and breathe, before your brain starts to rot from all that festering stagnation and cognitive dysfunction.

    Here's a tip: no one will ever know that you've had a lobotomy if you wear a wig to hide to the scars; stop posting your drivel on message boards, and learn to control the slobbering. I understand what you are trying to say, even though you obviously don't. Have you ever noticed that whenever you sit behind a keyboard, some idiot starts typing? To quote Martin Luther King, Jr.: "Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity."

    You have that certain nothing. Truly, you are about as interesting as watching a slug move slowly across a large rock. You are nastier than a five-dollar whore getting a shit enema. You're a waste of time, space, air, flesh, and the rectum you were born from, retard. Maybe you wouldn't come across as such a jellyfish-sucking mental midget if you weren't an 'idiot savant' without the 'savant' part; if your weren't so fat that when you run, you make the CD player skip at the radio station, or if you didn't have a face so ugly that Peeping Toms break into your house and close the blinds. Who am I kidding? You would.

    Please try to have some small idea of what in the hell you're talking about before you try to post again.

    TL;DR:You are nothing.
