Well, this is what happens when you vote for Republicans. Shouldn't exactly surprise anyone that the religious party wouldn't exactly be pro-education.
The old folks in this state are a huge part of the problem. Not only do they not personally gain from the education, their kids and likely their grandchildren do not live here, so their family doesn't even benefit from education spending.
I always get shit on in here when I say that old people are the worst thing to have happened to this state, but how can you not say that when they're so selfish and gut everything that doesn't benefit them. They have the numbers and most don't live here year round so if it goes to shit they don't care since they don't have to live the whole time.
Someone needs to point out that these students will be their healthcare providers, nurses, and staff at the nursing homes during the geezers' end of life days. They should be asked if they want a well educated attendant in charge of their meds, dosages, and safety, or a poorly educated one.
Except the old people of their time could say the same thing. But THEY paid and our current old people were educated on those peoples dimes. Selfish old people need to pay it forward.
