Hmm, so we give the schools a massive budget, they spend it and say it&#039;s not enough, we give them much more, again spent and not enough, give them more....on and on it goes like this. 

When will we learn that no matter how much we give the school system they will spend it and ask for more. Soltion? Stop increasing their budget and tell them there will never be more. If they knew that was actual reality they would learn very quickly how to make it work.]]></description>

You are a left wing loon. I have a business and I pay 51% of  my income in taxes. I wonder how you would feel if you payed that much in taxes. Most of the money goes to pensions not the kids. Taxation with out representation! I could always move and leave you and the rest. What are you going to do when you run out of other people&#039;s money?]]></description>

What exactly is the &quot;fair share&quot;?
adverb
1. without cheating or trying to achieve unjust advantage.
Are you discriminating against people that have different income than you?
Prop just treated a symptom, not the cause, and while that symptom was allayed, nothing was done to fix the problem. So now as the prescription is running out, they look for a refill. Sounds like an addiction to me.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I will vote for prop 55. I am sick of people complaining about their taxes while they take full advantage of what the rest of us pay taxes for. And they never lift a hand to support clean air and clean water as far as I can tell. The word parasite springs to mind. Maybe its time they became useful parasites.]]></description>

What&#039;s my &quot;fair share&quot;? Should I not be obligated to pay the same percentage as any other citizen? 38% of my paycheck equals $500,000.00. Who is the arbiter of what&#039;s fair? The corrupt teachers union wants to steal my money to pay down their pension obligations. Is that fair?  This will inevitably eat into my charitable donations and hamper my ability to hire new employees. Why should teachers recieve pensions when the majority of hard working Americans are forced to save for their retirement?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am from the WCUS sadly I don&#039;t think enough is being done for English Language Learners and Foster children. One Instructional Aide in a collaborative class is not enough. There is no accountability, or baseline followed by progress report of goals met.. They simply go through the motions. The LCAP simply is a way to manipulate how service are rendered.. There is no specific Learning plan for these students. 
Sincerely,
Disappointed mom]]></description>

Your impressive command of the written word is surely evidence of your education from the &quot;rightists&quot;(?).  But I do agree that teachers are being asked to do things they shouldn&#039;t have to deal with.  School should be about education without political-correctness as an influencing factor.  Maybe if schools had adequate funding they wouldn&#039;t be stuck accepting Federal monies with all the strings attached.]]></description>
