I pay Medicare tax but I don't own any elderly.
It's no longer a good value in my eyes. Building extra fancy new schools on my dime is just pissing me off. The current buildings are in good shape and if they need updating/repair, then fix them.

We just got a $60 MILLION middle school jammed up our ass. All this bullshit about how bad the building is and they need a NEW school.

Now that the new middle school is under construction, they're going to move some of the elementary students to the old middle school with minor repairs.

Screwed again. PA needs tax reform enacted to bring school boards in line. The have the pen and the open checkbook that comes directly out of my paycheck.

What ever happened to being confined to a budget? Spending within your means?

All I hear is "it's for the children" but the teachers and administrators NEVER want to get any added costs deducted from their paychecks.
