1 Month Shorter School Year?

Has it really come to this?

California Considers Shorter School Year

So... in a move yesterday, Gov. of CA Jerry Brown announced with other law makers that there is a real possibility that the next school year would have to be cut by 20 school days. Are you like me and are wondering just why in the heck they always are playing the same card, in order to raise taxes. See, I live in California and for years it has always been the same argument. If we don't raise "revenue" the kids will suffer. OR, If you don't vote for X then the prisons will close and we will hire murderers and pedophiles to teach your children. It's a red herring and I for one will not fall for this ever again. There are more services programs and freebies that can be cut. They know it... I know it... and you know it.
