[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I don’t want to see dollars siphoned from this county to support another county[/b]—-Baltimore, Cecil or Caroline county. What I do want to see is that people in those counties holdi their local board and political officers accountable. I’m against bringing marijuana to this county. Just look to DC being unable to control synthetic marijuana and they are dealing with public overdoses in front of schools. Not to mention, heaven forbid high marijuana drivers on the beltway or public school officials coming to work high or an uptick in young teens using marijuana at a parent sponsored home party. I don’t want to see free universal pre-k. I’d rather that money be put toward smaller class sizes or instructional aides in grades K-3. Though we are close to DC, we don’t have DC revenue for capital flow, so let’s stop trying to keep up with the Jones’s. [/quote] That's how state funding of education works, though. And how it ought to work. All I ask is that the governor (1) not endorse the principle that local government is the best government and then impose an executive order that overrides the decisions of the local government (as in the Ocean City school calendar) and (2) not redistribute money from a tax increase away from areas that voted for the tax increase to areas that voted against the tax increase (as in the killing of the Baltimore Red Line). I don't know what's going on with Ike Leggett's non-endorsement of Ben Jealous, but I seriously doubt it's about the Kirwan Commission recommendations.[/quote]
