taxes that go towards schools where the children that I don’t have go to.

The alternative is being surrounded by uneducated people, so this has never bothered me.

Underrated point!!

Would you rather pay more and keep people educated and busy... or pay less and have them find ways to occupy their time 🚓

If OP didn't want to pay those extra taxes they should have settled elsewhere where there is no nearby school IMO
