Obolish School taxes in the Commonwealths/States for homeowners who do not have anyone attending schools there.

Created by J.S. on January 24, 2013

Commonwealth of Pa.: Very high school taxes. Homeowners who have never had children attending Pa. schools must yearly pay these taxes which are higher than real estate taxes. The schools are filled with students whose parents may rent, live with others and do not pay this school tax even though they have children in schools/colleges. This is an unfair taxation to those who have no children and especially not fair to seniors on fixed incomes who have never had children in Pa. schools nor attended schools in Pa. themselves. The parents who have children in school should pay the taxes. It's discriminatory to tax those who do not have any students in school to pay such extremely high taxes each year. Really unfair.
