@aggieben I understand that you agree politically, but his amoral character should be repugnant to a Christian man. Why is it so impossible to hold him to account? 5/5
@aggieben 4. Back to the OP, not choosing Trump makes me insane? First of all, lazy name calling again. Second, a man that is a proven liar, cheat, and sex offender offers my family nothing. And your defense of him is the most confusing thing of all. 4/n
You know things are bad when the most boring person doing the most boring job for decades has to come out and say, “Stop trying to arrest us for doing math”
SB2 allots $1B new spending at $10k/voucher
$80M is skimmed off the top by Comptroller’s office & CEAOs
That leaves $920M which will pay for 92,000 vouchers
Over 75% will already be in private schools, 25% from public
So 25% of 92,000 is 23,000 kids coming from public schools all across TX. (0.004% of TX students) Only a few kids from many schools here & there, not 23,000 from one district
Fixed costs remain the same, i.e. if a teacher loses 1 kid/class, you can’t fire that teacher because she still has 25 kids in her classes
So there is no money saving, there is no reduction in staff
You just spent $1 BILLION to help 0.004% of kids. That’s dumb
@aggieben Not what I was suggesting but thanks for the ad hominem attack. The preamble defined the framers intent and “promote the general welfare” implies some social responsibility. The reach can be argued but I don’t think you can say it’s zero.
You can help by stopping the spread of rumors and misinformation. @FEMA has created a rumor response page to make it easier to get the facts:
