and claimed 3 jillion jobs would be lost, reporters would just reprint that too. That’s what many of them think their jobs are. This is the media we have. This is why Republicans win elections.
You’re diverting $3 billion from the private sector to the public sector, it will kill jobs and put at risk families in a tough position.
You have no known purpose for this money other then he lively white elephant you call education.
But to date the proponent side has yet to clearly articulate the spending purpose for this series of tax hikes.
I dare you to communicate any detailed justification for the tax hikes or the specific spending priorities the tax hikes will drive.
include education. And that’s it. Education. The spending purpose is also education. The justification is that education funding was cut.
It’s really so simple even Mark G. could understand it. Maybe he could explain it to you someday.
Ritter hiked taxes, then cut education?
Everything has been cut due to the great recession … well everything that is except Obama and the Democrats spending spree. How come they cut you out of the dinner table conversation on the spending spree?
Why wasn’t education a capstone within your spending spree?
Your first sentence is both wrong and irrelevant.
Your second sentence is wrong and ignorant.
Your third question makes no sense.
Your fourth question also makes no sense.
If you had a signature, that would probably be wrong too.
But hey, Maybe Tad has God on his side?
Some of us think education is actually worth spending money on. Sorry you disagree, but I can guess why.
this is a definition of “Libertad”, nicht wahr?
Cuz money magically disappears if anyone from the government touches it.
That why defense contractors (private) construction companies (private) and all other beneficiaries of government spending are going out of business, because none of that tax revenue ever finds its way back into the flow of the economy.
“Divert”?
Yeah, sure. Whatever.
With DPS graduating only 43.5% of it’s enrollees, some Denverites will probably want to know you plan of fixing this problem with these tax hikes.
Yet you seem not to want to commit to any reform or positive outcomes.
The voters are looking for a return on their money, you have yet to educate us on the specific success factors you will deliver.
Funding education will employ teachers. Just because it is in the public sector does not mean that it isn’t a job.
God will call Oral Roberts home!
Oh, too late. nm.
This is the kind of thing that the assholes at cpp do and I find it immature and distasteful.
COPols has remained a source of quality commentary and factual analysis for so long, and I would hate to see that thrown away, even for humor.
