[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]50% of 0 is 0. The % doesn’t matter, funding the cost matters. If you are concerned about the %, raise taxes to maintain 50%. [/quote] The percentage absolutely does matter. Especially to the 19% of the county population that does not have school age children - which is not me - I have 2 and another 2 no longer in APS. But the county has competing costs, some just as important as schools, and the answer cannot always be raise taxes to fund all the costs that each group of various constituents think are necessary. [/quote] Throwing out arbitrary % limits to spend on education is meaningless. [/quote]
