I hope your message gets publicized so the truth can make an impact on voters who don’t research the facts. More money means nothing, especially if there is little accountability, no parental input, and no way to measure the results. I attended 12 years of public school in the agriculture village of Wendell, Idaho. The school district had limited funds, but many of us later excelled in college and in our careers. It wasn’t because of money or liberal politics.

Throwing good money after bad is the leftist way. Thank you — again — for stating the leftist objectives, their potential results, and better solutions so clearly.

Thanks for hitting on some of the technical flaws of the Initiative, Brian. Regardless, though, as you point out Idaho has a huge ($1.2B) surplus and we just gave a substantial funding increase (12% I think) to education. This is not the year for such an initiative or for any tax increase.

The two most funded schools in the US have the lowest test scores. Money does nothing to improve education. NY and Chicago, this can be looked up.
