Re: What is your level of optimism concerning the future of the United States of Amer
I gave you two conservative sources which you dud not like. I gave you a source that was privately funded that you didn't like because it didn't support your theory. I'm not going to provide you a source to support your theory. That is your job. Have you ever considered the reason that those other expenditures that have effected your state has hit it harder because your state didn't pay it forward in good times. Not really just CA, many states failed to do this during the good times. However, with that said, prop 13 on top of not paying it forward during the good times stripped funds from education because the very purpose of prop 13 was to cut school spending which was hard to do with a growing population through the 1980's. Just because it's projected to slow in the near future doesn't address years of in influx of students and school spending with less revenue coming in so they relied on other sources like bonds and the high of the stock market that have crippled them with debt.
Well, I'm waiting for yours. So there you go.
Got to love the Progressive approach though. $35 billion in new school construction over the last 8 years, among the highest paid teachers in the United States, a 40% of state budget Constitutional mandate for school spending, massive unfunded teacher pension liabilities, etc, and none of that is considered education related, and in fact, the Progs claim California is 49th in spending.
Only the insane would buy any part of that.
Interesting how when I ask what your sources indicate, you dodge the question. Just more from the script.
I'm certainly not interested in waisting any more effort here.
Thanks for the lesson I admit I was too slow to learn.
