This dropping the assessments is going to become a lot less popular than you might believe..Much like what Gov. Brownback in Kansas, when the lost revenue impacted the school tax debate, almost lost him a re-election..

However, it’s a debate that we must have, in-spite of the implications that defunding, or slowing down the Education Gravy-train, that drives the women, and minority vote, against the GOP in elections..

Government, local, state, and Federal has got to be reversed, it sounds right until the Liberals get to sound their talking points, and they wave the red, (false) flags, blaming revenue, not incompetence, socialist indoctrination, that is failing our schools, which everyone who actually follows closely, knows is really happening..

It will be interesting to watch, and whether the new Lt. Governor will be able to withstand the broadside coming at him, without our considerable and demonstrably visible effort..

You're right, in that sense. It has to be done carefully and there will be a lot of squealing. It is like turning an ocean liner around. We'll see just how skilled he is on this...but he has a lot of room to maneuver - if he can knock down the max increase from 10% to 5% he can claim victory, but the 'precious schools' will still have enough money to build their nanaoriums (indoor swimming pool complexes).
