Legalize marijuana. It might not make up the entire eight billion, but then, everyone would be too stoned to care.

The govs state school cuts came in.

Looking it over, it's pretty fair. Where Cleveland and poor districts got a 1-5% cut in state money, everyone else got 20% +. For my district thats $1.3 mil a year.

The very wealthy districts were cut 40% or more! Go, you evil Rep, go!

Is school security in those budgets? Perhaps, the wealthy schools need fewer metal detectors and security personnel than the poor (Inner City) schools?

The poorer districts have a double whammy, not as much property value so less tax income, and a lower level of readiness when the kids come to school.

That said Cleveland schools are awful holding cells basically. Nice buildings though, gotta spread the patronage among the Dem machine players.

I looked harder at the cuts. Some blueblood districts got close to 80% cut!
