- Only one clip to talk about today, but it’s a good one. Check it out: Kudos to the elected school board members at Elida Local who are attempting to remove their district from the voucher groucher lawsuit after three years of ponying up to pay expenses for other people’s lawyers. Among the insights leading to their bout of buyer’s remorse: “School tax dollars should not be used to fund lawsuits against the state,” “We’re giving more money away because we’re complaining we lost money,” “We’re being funded by people who don’t send their kids here” (as in, private school families still pay property taxes), and the realization that a successful court action “destroys a parent’s ability to choose unless they have money.” Congratulations on achieving enlightenment, your honors, and good luck in your effort.
