Education Debate - Rubio Vs. Sanders
|
Quote:That's the free market at work right there along side crony capitalism. You need to read more than just the Facebook blurb. 1. The state will pony up $80M, not $250M. The rest is paid for the DEMOCRAT CONTROLLED city of Milwaukee. I see this as a magnanimous gesture by Walker to a place that mostly voted against him. 2. The $250M cut to education saves that much every year. By contrast, the money spent on the Bucks will cost the state slightly more than $4M per year on a 20 year bond. So you're talking about a factor of 60, not "the same dollar amount." 3. Taxes on the salaries of the NBA players will result in more than the $4M per year going back to the state. 4. Very little of the increase in tuition and subsidies since (say) 1980 have gone to faculty. Higher education has spent far more on parking garages, Taj Mahals, and lush offices for the administrators. I'm all in favor of banning governments from spending money on sports arenas. I'm all in favor of banning government from spending money on lots of other things too. But our 'elected' rulers will never agree to giving up the opportunity to buy votes. "Why should I give information to you when all you want to do is find something wrong with it?" |
