    To answer that question, it’s because it is in the best interest of society as a whole including the people that don’t have children for the next generation to grow up educated and able to contribute productively to society.

        Do you give a shit if they grow up and stick a gun in your face to take your wallet because they have no serviceable skills that can provide them access food?

          That’s always happened with the frequency ebbing and flowing in every society.

          That’s not going to convince anyone.

            Your logic is suggesting that people that can get their needs basic needs met are robbing people to get their basic needs met? That makes no sense. Try again on that one, please.

      I would also add to your answer that the person that doesn’t want to pay likely went to public school and already benefited from other people (including child free people) paying for their public education via school taxes and as soon as its that poster’s turn to pay taxes for schools they want to turn it around at the height of selfishness with “fuck you, I got mine”.

        And also what if they do eventually have kids, how fair would it be if they took advantage of an institution that they hadn’t been paying into the success of.

          Children getting an education isn’t a gift to the parents, it’s part of just having a society. No one benefits when children are kept from basic learning. That’s why it’s usually not an optional thing.
