Council Tax!!

[superally]

It confuses me,i pay 2 &half times more than my mate who lives 2 mile up the road from me.I send my kid to private school,get my garbage collected once a meek like his is,he has 4 kids at state school,why the big difference,im getting less for my money purely on the school thing alone.
Is there an alternative way???
A fairer way as in use more pay more??

You do benefit from state schools though, I don't think the employees at the company you're a director of would be as effective without education.

It's still in your interests for the company to be performing well though isn't it?

You've done well out of life, is it too much to ask for you to put something back?

(I realise that sounds incredibly preachy of me, I don't mean it to appear that way :D )

I dont mind putting something back,i resent paying so much tho,especially as houses a mile down the road pay half what i pay,and some get a lot more back.
what im saying is -is it fair paying so much just because of my postcode or house value.

Only a 1.9% rise this year.
