Having the court decide matters of taxation, funding and amounts, specially in such vague terms as "adequately", is unacceptable .

Way too late, The court taxed the state a long time ago, to fund the schools in Kansas City, the legislature just rolled over and paid it.

I refuse to be optimistic about any legislature, State or Federal, ever standing up to the courts, mainly because I think they agree with what the courts are doing, there is no other explanation that makes any sense.

Makes sense. I can see the legislature saying "We did not want to raise your taxes, but the mean, nasty courts made us."

I'm afraid you're right.
