State support for public education has been dwindling for decades, increasingly expecting the university to run like a business. In 1990, California paid for 78 percent of the total education cost per student. Currently it pays for around 48 percent.

As with so many other socialist whinges about funding "cuts," what this really means is that expenses have risen dramatically faster than the also-rising funding.

Exactly! The TEA is suing because the Texas legislature didn’t FUND enough — not cuts, mind you — but not what they have learned to expect.

Pink slips have gone out, so the lawyers and the educators and the MSM, have taken up their cause of maintaining the status quo of sucking money out of tapped out taxpayers.

After all the biggest backers (money and muscle) of Democrat politicians are #1 [Big Education] and # 2 [Big Lawsuit] — and “explained” to the public by the MSM.

The THREE BIG anti- Rick Perry groups:

Big Education

Big Law

Big MSM

AND the ENVIRONMENALISTS are heavily invested in, if not running, all three (manufacture data, regulate, and indoctrinate).
