MALDEF sues to end property tax and go to income tax in Texas

[CosmicCowboy]

if you qualify for services based on financial need, you need to go. bright line.

Absolutely. We would have the lowest poverty level and the best educated population in the country.

And you realize we wouldn't be throwing them out, right? We would just be giving them cash bribes to leave with the agreement they can't come back. Big difference.

if you qualify for services based on financial need, you need to leave the state of Texas. We don't allow no spongers.

Or we could send them to Wyoming.....you ever been there? It's a real hole.

So simple.

But why so impossible to do?

[CosmicCowboy]

...I knew you guys would love this plan...

[CosmicCowboy]

Why is it impossible?

[johnsmith]

CC rules with an iron fist of compassion.....

I like it.

[Winehole23]

Nope. Heard it's lovely. Where did you go?

[johnsmith]

Nope. Heard it's lovely. Where did you go?

Spend some time in southwestern Wyoming and tell me if you think it's lovely.

There are some parts that don't absolutely suck, but if you want to enjoy the outdoors in that area of the country, go to Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon.....any of those states blows away Wyoming.

[johnsmith]

Oops, I meant Southeastern Wyoming....that's where it really blows.

[johnsmith]

Southwest isn't so bad actually.

[johnsmith]

I would imagine that sw wyoming is where they'd run their "freeloader" new gov't from.

[Winehole23]

...I knew you guys would love this plan...

I don't think you'd know what to do without all the worthless people on public relief to chastise and scold. Your post count could seriously suffer.

I disagree....we could always switch topics to federal gun control laws.

[Winehole23]

true. comment was aimed at CC.

[johnsmith]

true. comment was aimed at CC, not meant broadly.

No, I got it....my comment was aimed at CC as well.....

[CosmicCowboy]

Oh there would still be LOTS of good stuff to argue about...

[Winehole23]

i don't doubt it. until then, you're a broken record more or less.

[CosmicCowboy]

Oh you wound me deeply...

[Winehole23]

you being brutally frank about your true political feelings is more than enough for me

[George Gervin's Afro]

so the moral of the story is that the GOP plan to fund schools failed...

[Winehole23]

I would imagine that sw wyoming is where they'd run their "freeloader" new gov't from.

CC specified California. i'd think a freeloader republic would go over pretty well there. it's already their tacit philosophy.

[CosmicCowboy]

Seriously...why wouldn't my plan be a win/win for all involved? The welfare recipient gets a big windfall of cash and a chance to start over in a more "compassionate" state...and we don't have to support them the rest of their lives...

[CosmicCowboy]

CC specified California. i'd think a freeloader republic would go over pretty well there. it's already their tacit philosophy.

Yeah...kind of like a dog. If you are gonna dump them you want to get them far enough from home that they can't find their way back...

[Winehole23]

Seriously? Nope.

[Blake]

They already do, dummy. A little out of touch, are we?

So you are saying all districts are equally funded?
