It is really a very simple idea to comprehend.
Charter Schools receive property tax dollars but the property owners have NO vote on their budget or their school boards. That is wrong -- therefore they should NOT be funded through our local property tax dollars.

Uh, DV, the taxpayers have NO VOTE ON METROPLEX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DV, instead of being the optimist you try to claim to me, why don't you start being a realist. The taxpayers of the city of Schenetady do NOT, and I repeat do NOT have a vote on Metroplex projects. There is NO BUDGET put to the voters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, answer the question......total household income for families in the city of Schenectady is typically a paltry $30,000. You have the NEVER to tell parents they can CHOOSE private schools or they could CHOOSE charter schools if they pay for it themselves. DV, tell us WHERE are the families supposed to get money to pay tuition to charter schools (if tuition was charged)??????? Can you answer that?????? Tell us DV!!!! Stop avoiding answering the question!!!!!!!!!! Ya know if your those GREEDY retired school teachers weren't getting paid their fat pensions, maybe taxes would be lower. At almost $60,000 a year PLUS GENEROUS health insurance, how much is that over 20 years of retirement?????? Huh?????? Huh????? Then add in the COLA's. Hmmmmm? |
