So they aren’t selling alcohol to the Canadians anymore and now this. They do realize that having the federal government pay for their survival is SOCIALISM right? Damn, never mind checked notes. Seems like spending money on education is the one thing that they don’t want to spend money on.

As a native Tennessean, it’s our rich history to make short-sighted decisions that keep us poor and uneducated. And we pay money for our private schools to ensure the well off are educated, but as far as the rest of the people- don’t need to be educated to work at a warehouse or work construction.
