Don't forget that property tax hike we're going to be saddled with when they move more cost over to the counties and municipalities!


**** Matt Beavis and his Koch lackeys.

A superintendent I spoke with last year said that’s likely going to be the plan going forward, possibly even uncapping the max amounts school boards can’t raise your property tax. That way the state can give tax breaks and say “looks how great we’re doing” while pushing the tax burden To local districts even more.

It is truly the only time that "trickle down" actually works.

So is this the budget that Bevin vetoed and the legislature just overrode?
