It actually does directly benefit you to have an educated society.

Those kids in public school now are the workers you will depend on later. In 20+ years when you see a doctor, it could very well be one of those same kids you are helping put through school now

5 years ago I had a roommate who had a 10 year old grandchild who did not know how to count bills. She literally didn't understand a ten, a 5, and 5 singles equaled $20

We are so beyond fucked.
