Let the voters decide if we should pay more tax for
education.
Put more tax on cigarettes to
pay for it.
Horsehockey!
Education must be a priority. The state does not fund national
defense. Education must be our first or
second priority as a state—nothing less.
If some things don’t get funded because education is funded as it should
be, then that’s the cost of living by well ordered priorities.
If legislators want the people to vote on a
tax for something that ranks 129th among other priorities, that’s
fine; but to abandon their duty to fund what is essential to the future of this
state is cowardice. There is no sugar
coasting here. If this is where our
current elected officials are headed, we need to send them all home.
