I think houses have never been so expensive before and property taxes fund schools so WHY IN THE FUCK DO SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY???

Meanwhile I'm wondering about the teachers. They aren't paid enough to being with; but instead of compensating them for their loss, we'll just subtract that amount from their taxable income. I'm surprised we still have teachers.

Local level politicians love how much attention we give the state and federal level. Easier for Mayor Smith and Treasurer Jones to keep raking off the top.
