Good line.
In Texas they have the Robin Hood system. "Wealthy" districts are tapped to help support districts with lower taxes - the "poor" districts. So the "wealthy" districts have to keep passing bonds to stay even with services they need and still be able to fork over money to the "poor" districts.
I believe TX had two special sessions this summer (I'm not in TX now) to sort out school financing. Of course the tax system is so convoluted and business didn't want to get soaked and LIBERALS wanted to keep soaking the other guy. So nothing changed and the homeowners are still stuck with the bill and being asked for more. They're hopping mad.
In California they do that at the state level with the property taxes. My district is considered " above average" and yet, still must go to the voters with hat in hand. The poor districts? Well, they have to use their extra funds to pay for security rather than education. America needs to face the fact that her schools are a mess and get rid of the unions and the hippies on the school boards.
