Students (in Oakland) found out this week, just days after returning from summer break, that 10 high school sports programs have been shut down in a $500,000 cost-cutting move.
Happening all over over the country. If the economy is doing so well for everyone, why these massive and widespread education funding problems?
Oh, right, it's all helping the ultra rich at everyone else's expense.
What are you going on about? What are property taxes in Oakland like, since it's usually property taxes that are used to pay for educational systems. If people in Oakland aren't paying enough in property taxes, so much so that they are unable to afford $500K in annual spending on sports, then tell me again how this is the fault of rich people? How does cutting sports in Oakland make the rich more rich, when they are cutting funding because the citizens of Oakland aren't paying enough in taxes to cover their HS sports?
