You are you trying to kid? A lot of school funding comes from the State coffers, however it is divided up.

What your saying is like telling your kids there is no money in the family "movie envelope" for them to go to the theatre but you have $300 in the family "beer envelope" and then telling them movie money does not come from the beer envelope. Get real the Democrats are OWNED by the NEA and MEA.

Please Mr. Finley, get a clue about how the state budget works before demonstrating again to everyone how little you know. Funding for roads do not come from the money that pays teacher salaries or benefits. Whatever savings can be achieved in the schools does nothing to direct money towards roads. Your claim otherwise is false and simply demonstrates your ignorance of how the state budget works.

This is typical of the governor. Give her the tax increase that she demands, or, she'll affect a). your Safety,

b). your Health, and c). your Children. Nobody should be surprised at this.
