Okay, but to be fair, school does not teach about taxes.

Probably because if they did, they would have a neverending supply of rebellious little adults on their hands, from either side of the political sphere.

This is not very helpful when you're making little cog workers and soldier yes men.

Why would knowing about taxes a few years earlier make you rebellious?
