Whilst you reduce the demand, you also reduce the scale of economics which helps educate all of our kids. Classrooms are less full—yet the actual costs of running those—keeping in them warm and lit, for example, stay the same. Thus, the amount amortized over each kid actually increases. Whereas a book manufacturer gave a quantity discount on purchases, said school now pays a higher price per unit. Wouldn't matter if we were cranking out kids like rabbits, but our population growth (referring to the US and not a Third World country) is comparatively slow.

Thus, you're impairing overall education by taking your own kids private and *not* contributing to the others—but you wouldn't be if the tax break were *not* implemented.
