Why should people without kids pay taxes to fund the education

for example?



So there will be educated people around to keep the country going

they are too old to do it themselves. That's also why they pay more
taxes than those who provide and bring up the relevant warm bodies.



So, if the tax wasn't been spent on keeping other people kids in
various ways the money could be put aside by either HMG or the tax
payer to fund their retirement.


What do you mean by 'fund'? Money doesn't push wheelchairs or cook
food. Money is a medium of exchange. Only human beings actually do
things.

The point you make is about paying for something that only other
people use. In this case, that isn't relevant, as there is no possible
doubt that you will make use of other peoples' children. And while
politicians prefer other peoples' children to receive a minimal
education, that really isn't a good idea.
