I'm tired of the highest percentage of my tax payment going to the libraries ($255/year). The next highest percentage goes to school salaries ($170/year) and the total payment to the EBR school system is $1,072/year with absolutely zero return on that investment in my opinion.
So let me get this straight. You want higher taxes so that the percentages spent on libraries and teacher safeties won't be as high?
Sounds smart.

I don't think that the libraries should be receiving the highest individual percentage of my tax payment.
I don't think that the library should be receiving 150% of the next highest millage. That's not smart to me as it relates to a return on investment. I don't see this type of issue in other places I have property.
IMO EBR Schools should decide that they will pay teachers some considerable percentage higher than other districts to try to achieve some serious change. Instead they are bidding to have Wifi installed at all schools in the neighborhood of $5mil. However, IMO that school system is a lost cause.
