Act 72 a joke as expected.

The real truth about slots and Act 72 is already beginning to sink in.  So much for all the added revenue to our schools and lower taxes and tax increases only for the average inflation figure.  Now the state is going to grant 210 districts exemptions from the rule so they don't have to let the voters decide on it in an election as was promised and required.  The education system in this state is a bottomless pit of taxes with no accountability.  And Act 72 and slots don't look to be the magic formula to end this trail of tax and spend history any time soon.  We should be ashamed to see how much the taxpayers pay toward education in this state and how little we get for it in many of the districts across the state, particularly urban districts.  If it were up to me, I'd turn the whole educational system over to private enterprise and remove the government from it altogether.  Can you say vouchers?

Thanks David, I get it. I must have some type of standard calendar that was based on GMT. Either way, a blue moon is cool. Wonder if it's caused by global warming? Just kidding.

A conservative eternal optimist. The sun is rising, not setting. But I am concerned about the condition of our nation and how indoctrinated we have become as a society with liberal ideologies that don't encourage or teach people to think for themselves and reach their own conclusions. And the lack of moral absolutes today in our society is more dangerous than anything else, including radical Islam. And I am sick of political correctness. It's going to kill us all. I strongly believe in prayer and in the mercy and goodness of God. But for the grace of God, the sun would have already set on this nation.
