I don't care if you like it or not. I don't care if you complain about it or not.

Your conversational style chafes me. I disagree with most of what you've posted in this conversation. Your "logic" is faulty. You assert and then build on those assertions. But you build on sand.

I'm not gonna argue with you since our positions on the initial conditions aren't even close. We're not close enough to learn anything from each other.

I do appreciate your civil tone, thank you.
1. None of my logic is faulty. If you think it is, don't merely state it, prove it.

2. I state a fact (bedrock) and build upon that. You don't have the right to force me to pay to educate your kids. This means no matter how many people vote on such a law, it is illegitimate. If I refuse to comply with an illegitimate law, I'm still morally and ethically correct.

3. I think if you and a bunch of other people want to get together and pool your money for a school and you agree to pay a certain portion of your income to support such schools, that's just great. Kudos to you. Just dont' try FORCE others to contribute with illegitimate legislation.

4. I'm sorry if my civil tone chafes you. It's just my normal conversation style.
