Big Expensive School Tax

BEST = Big Expensive School Tax

The Colorado state grant that the school district keeps  trying to get voters to vote for in order to build a big expensive new school would be a special school district tax that would add to the existing school tax which automatically increases 5% annually!  It is a built in tax increase that is NOT a county tax but is a state mandated school district tax!

I think its fundamentally wrong to tax those not using the public school system (90%) to pay for those in the small minority (10%) who are using the school system especially since those with children in the school aren’t willing to pay for the actual cost of the school while telling others that they need to pay for something they don’t use.  Only pay for what you use should be the rule.
