“What is also interesting in this school discussion, we have got school districts in our district that have just built new schools. So are we going to go into the taxpayers' pockets in Janesville, that just built a new middle school, get those dollars out of the Janesville taxpayers', even though they just built their own school pockets, get them out here in Washington, and spend 40 cents on the dollar on the bureaucracy? I can guarantee you Washington is not going to make the decision to return that money back to Janesville, because, after all, Janesville just built a new school. So what we are really saying is in those communities that have already taken the responsibility for education very seriously, like my hometown of Janesville, Wisconsin, those communities are now going to be punished for making the decision they made, building the new school because that was right for education in their community. Because Washington is still going to collect tax dollars from those people, even in the communities where they built the new school, and then Washington is going to make its decision where to send the dollars. I guarantee you, it is not going to be back to them. So they are paying for a new school because they know how important education is. We did in our town, and we believe in education. So we are already paying higher taxes to pay for that school.”
