Old Math

The tax increase arguments have been quite a disappointment so far. The pro crowd is all platitudes ("It's for the children"), jumping from the premise that "we all want good schools" to the conclusion "therefore we need a tax hike", without ever touching logical ground.

The anti arguments are even worse, venom laced diatribes against public education in general and this school district in particular.

I am hoping that the rhetoric will improve, but I am not planning on it.
