By taking a (voluntary) number of children out of the public schools it allows more spending PER STUDENT in that school. How, you may ask if the tax dollars follow the child to the private school? Most of the monies for ed. come from the feds, not the property tax, so the money “lost” would be insignificant in that only the property tax wouldn’t stay with the public school
Now,,, what about the parents even with the 8 K tax break can’t afford private? Same as what you would do at college time! Loans, grants, academic and athletic scholarships
So you’re ok with your federal tax money paying for others kids? Just not your property? That makes much more sense to be honest
