Colorado gives $2B to illegals through welfare then blackmails voters into tax increases for the “kids/schools”

I would not be so uptight about more money sinking into the public education black hole if some intelligence escaped from it once in a while. This will cost the average family a lot more than they are publicly saying.

Melinda Gates is funding this because she knows that via the Common Core database scheme her company will end up with much of this tax increase.

It always does. I know the people that get freebies for every facet of their life don't care, but when will working people learn that these people can't be trusted. All it takes is a little reading. I'm hoping with the shock from notices of health insurance increases the majority will be in no mood for this increase.

"It is a testament to the breadth and depth of our reforms that Colorado has attracted the attention of business leaders across the country," Gov. John Hickenlooper said of the donations.

Delusional dork.

“Trying to do California Part II! “

Huge problem here and to a large degree, they have succeeded. :(

Back in 2000, the Gates Foundation looked at a series of reading programs that are the best in the nation, one of which is considered the Cadillac of reading programs among the homeschooling world. They passed on them all, which meant they were not interested in funding any effort to make them better known. Instead, they became interested in furthering the goals of Common Core.

The people who they have working at the Gates foundation all came from the Clinton administration.
