Got a budget problem? Explain to me how so many schools can have these ridiculous athletic stadiums.

Well I'm sure you know that the athletic facilities are paid for by folks like you and me who donate to them or go to the games (in college at least, St. Louis has tried to pay for a stadium for the rams but Kroenke wouldnt take my tax money), not state budget dollars.

I don't know what the magic number is in regards to funding primary or secondary students, but I know we spend less money on education than we did in the 90s, and things cost more than they did 25 years ago. I see education dollars as a great investment in our future as a state, but I get that some don't agree.
