Why does a single person pay more taxes when they are already paying city taxes for couples that have kids that go to school.

I ask this every two weeks.
edit: Married folks with 2 kids in my equivalent tax bracket pay half the tax bill I do.

1. All couples don’t have kids
2. All couples who have kids don’t send them to public school
3. All kids aren’t age 5-18.
4. Single people have a ton of children too

If you are single with no kids and willing to work, you might have a lot of problems, but money shouldn’t be one of them.
If it is, it ain’t because of the tax brackets.

Because they have more disposable income.
And because they’re possibly gay.

My cats have already been declawed and skinned alive by this tax reform.

You also benefit from living in an educated society. I love when people bitch about taxes because they don't personally have kids in school yet these other people's kids will grow up and live among you one day. Don't you want to live among more educated and contributing members of society?

I don't personally know you however most couples that have children were once single with no children. I assume when you do have children you want there to be good schools with quality teachers there to teach your children? There are times in life when we must "pay forward" in order to reap future benefits. If the community as a whole doesn't pay taxes to support the education of it's future leaders and citizens, then you end up with a failing society. Even if you never have children, the educating of children is still very important to you as a citizen. If you don't believe me, go spend some time in North Baton Rouge.
