I guess it depends on the quality and funding of the school systems involved.

You know, it really doesn't bother me. When I owned a condo and had to pay property taxes in a reasonably upscale suburb of Chicago, I never complained about it even though I don't have kids who benefitted from the money that went toward the schools. I don't have a problem with the parents who obtain a direct benefit from the public schools that educate their children being asked to contribute a little more. That seems pretty reasonable to me.
