Perhaps overloading it with 1st generation citizens will bring it down, end it and Americans will continue to shift to homeschool and private school.

This is a pipe dream friend, there is no limit to what the stupid voters in this country will spend on education. No matter how corrupt or insane any educational project is proved to be the answer is always to spend MORE MONEY. (And that is coming from a public school teacher.)

What happens when there aren't enough taxpayers to fund the bond issues? What happens when there are fewer students and therefore, fewer incentives? They used to bully us by having our kids come home w/propaganda. Then they tried cutting art, music and PE, along with sports. Still, there are fewer students and fewer taxpayers.

I know teachers who can not get tenure. Other teachers who have moved to our area blithely assuming they will find jobs who have found that there are fewer positions because there are fewer students and fewer schools.

I am amazed to see so many private schools and homeschoolers here in my rural area. I also see retirees selling out of the counties with high property taxes and buying smaller homes in unincorporated areas.

In the 2004 elections, vote fraud approved some school bonds in this part of the state. Now, we are hearing that the money simply isn't available. Schools are closed in order to stretch the funds over fewer students.

You can vote increases forever. If there are fewer recipients, fewer teachers and administrators and fewer taxpayers, it simply can't happen as the teacher unions would prefer.
