He cut taxes and as a result the government collected less revenue. Sounds like a win to me.

Except less revenue meant cuts in school spending. Tends to piss off the soccer moms. As revenue continues to decrease the cuts to education will continue since Kansas has to balance its budget.

Yeah, but it shouldn't. Lower taxes means more soccer moms will be able to afford private or homeschool alternatives to the government school hell-holes. Besides, when did more spending ever lead to better schools? Spending per student adjusted for inflation has quadrupled in recent decades and the schools are just as crappy as ever. Government monopolies are crappy no matter how much money you throw at them.

Maybe the school boards have to figure out how to do more with less, like regular companies have to do all the time.
