Reply #44: Senator's school bills unfair burden (Carlisle PA)

[struggle4progress]

<snip> Santorum may be our senator, but Virginia wins hands down when it comes to collecting his taxes. And his new resident state doesn't even have to school his children.

Virginia schools don't pay for cyberschooling. Pennsylvania schools do.

So, Santorum signs his children up as Penn Hills students even though they're not there. And Penn Hills gets to pay cyberschool tuition at the rate of $7,000 a year for each child. That must more than make up for the taxes paid on his little $106,000 house in this state. <snip>

We'd say children should be enrolled where they live. These children obviously are not living in Penn Hills. Home base is Leesburg. <snip>
