He argues that schools have been given enough money and that any more funding would force cuts to other programs. Oh Arnold, are you starting to get the picture? It's never enough money, because it also buys they political power.

Democrats propose more spending for schools, new taxes on wealthyThey really mean "new taxes on the working class".
I attended my daughters graduation ceremony from CSU Stanislaus which lasted over 3 1/2 hours. I was disgusted that the first couple of hours were spent with the faculty patting each other on the back and giving awards to each other.

Correct me if I'm wrong...isn't this the same legislative body that just voted itself a pay raise??? Where do they think they are, Massachusetts?
Hey, they got theirs...and now they want yours, too!
If I was Arnold, I'd mention the pay raise at every single public event.

The A-holes just got passed a new tax on the wealthy last big election because a majority of the voters felt this wasn't coming out of their own wallet.
Eventually, these wealthy people who most often are also big employers in this state, will leave or retire.
What then CA State Democrats?
These Democrats are so detached from what makes a state go.
Boy Arnold has a boat load with these turds to deal with.

I suppose these school teachers haven't figured it out yet - but with the raises they are getting-----they are now the wealthy who are going to be paying the new tax bracket!! Congratulations, you are wealthy - now fork it over....
What a fiasco. I'm soooooooo glad I escaped that gigantic cesspool.

When left wing oligarchs say "tax the rich (or wealthy)" they usually mean those that "earn" their incomes through pursuit of a productive activity. Examples of productive activities are a regular 8 hour job or owning a small business. Left wing oligarchs are trust fund or corporate welfare leaches with protected money streams. Therefore, people like that can always say with a straight face, "Tax the rich!" without hurting
their financial interests.
Remember when the democrats put out the bulls**t that Clinton's HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros, was a community college professor and mayor of San Antonio who lived on $25,000 a year? They didn't tell you about the big multimillion dollar development company he owned. Blah Blah Boxer, Nancy "Bimbo" Pelosi, and Diane Not-so-Feinstein are the cut out of the same bolt of left wing oligarchical cloth. They want to be rich at the expense of the rest of us.

The teacher's union and prior deals need to be scuttled for the sake of education in all states.
They have a big interest in illegals being in school since that grows their job.
That is by far concern #1 over the education of citizens that suffer illegals in class.

In California the highest tax rate (9.3%) starts at around income of $40,000/year... this is hardly wealthy , especially in California.
