As I've said before, I've never knowingly hired an illegal employee and right now have no employees.

But the landscaping company that maintains my yard for $30 a week might employ illegals.

As some of the restaurants I dine in, as some of the companies that repair the roads I drive on, pick up my garbage, wash my cars, clean the hospitals and office buildings I may visit, pick the produce I eat, build the electronic products I use, load the appliances I buy onto trucks, keep my auto and home insurance premiums lower by reducing the costs of repairs, etc...

As I understand it the contribution from the lottery offsets the States contribution to the schools, the clincher being that the state maintains the highest level thus creating a net loss for schools when lottery activity is less. OAccording to the schools principal our local small elementary school lost 80K in one year directly due to the lottery. I am in process of researching the exact language for this so I can send it to the teachers union. Anyone else ever hear about this, I doubt it.

Saying funding for public education is "bottoming out,"...

BWAHAHAHA! I needed a laugh this morning. Bottoming out at 30 billion +??? Cry me a river.
