Mob rule, got it. Mean while the working poor and elderly are forced out of their homes by higher and higher property taxes. Perhaps the schools should educate the kids in reading writing and arithmetic instead of teaching football?

“Mean while the working poor and elderly are forced out of their homes by higher and higher property taxes.”

Exactly!

This is happening in quite a few areas it’s truly tragic.

Unintended consequences, or all part of the plan?

No taxes went up due to any bond election here in Allen and property tax contributed $0 to the stadium.

This actually shows the genius of the founders. They understood both the problems of a tyrant and mob rule. They sent the mob rule back to the states. The people in the individual school districts get to vote on the stadium bonds, and school board members.

This is a good thing

People wonder why I am so cynical about schools crying poor and building overpriced playgrounds while they turn out idiots.

Goes triple for any college or university.
