Claims Taxpayers
Not To Pay For
Personal Education
Charging “taxpayers should not
have to foot the bill for adults
who want to pursue hobbies via
the classroom, or take foreign
languages because they plan a
trip abroad,” E. Maxwell Benton,
schools consultant, California
‘Taxpayers Association, urges that
“reasonable fees should be charged for all but selected academic
courses, thus relieving the taxpayer of burdensome recreational
and self-advancement classes. The
cost of much of the adult education program should be carried
by those who benefit directly
from the classes.”
