[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP@13:40:  Please explain what you want MCPS to do about this. Please also explain a way to split Montgomery County into two or three parts that is actually politically feasible.[/quote]

Haha, that's the beauty of Maryland politics!  Montgomery County funds Maryland, and a few communities there fund 200 MCPS schools!  Btw, last I checked 80% of property tax collections go to MCPS, and almost 80% of MCPS' budget goes to teachers union salaries and benefits.  So you tell me who's driving the ship into the ground![/quote]

So wait, where is your politically-feasible policy for splitting Montgomery County into 2 or 3 parts? I don't see it. Your argument seems to be:

1. I live in [Bethesda/Chevy Chase/Potomac].
2. My property taxes pay for other people's services.
4. Including teachers' salaries.
4. Therefore [something].

And where do you think most of MCPS money should go, if not for teacher compensation? I really don't understand. Usually people complain that the proportion spent on teacher compensation is too low, i.e. too much is spent on administration.

Finally please also provide a citation showing that 80% of property tax collections go to MCPS.[/quote]
