Because for some reason out state and federal government is socialist, and need a way to fund schools for people who have children, infrastructure, and programs that help the less fortunate. I'm all for this but honestly why does one school need mega millions of dollars to educate a persons child? The math doesn't add up in some schools that operate on 500 million a year with 1400 students. And every year they need more. The kicker is that they charge admission to student led events and sports, further robbing the tax payer out of more.
