OK, I'm confused. Should I be happier that Davis kept the money
Or that he turned it over to the whores in the Teacher's Union?
Reducing budget shortfall ( and optimistically, future taxes); Mayber he's actually done the right thing?

The money was to reimburse the local school districts for the funds they expended in meeting federal mandates. Having Davis divert it is essentially taking it from the local taxpayers to spend it on something else. That amounts to a tax increase on the local taxpayers, and also means they won't be able to spend it on their priorities as opposed to Gray's. It may have been squandered anyway, but at least there'd have been a chance that the local school board could have been influenced. As it is, the money is out of their control.
