Have we spent ourselves into prosperity yet? CA is a state that is somewhere around 24 BILLION in debt. So where is the logic in spending yourself deeper into debt for a possible reduction of future cost? You only save money if you aren't in debt to begin with. Like when I replaced the windows in my house. it cost me 11K. I save roughly 75 dollars a month in my energy bill. so over the course of the year I might save 1,000 dollars. If I had paid for the windows on credit, it would take 10 YEARS to break even on the investment. So I wouldn't be "saving" money. Because I paid cash, that 1K is my savings per year. That is money I don't have to spend right now, and can spend on other things. THAT'S savings. Buying on credit then pretending you are saving money is the why this country is 14 TRILLION in debt and getting worse. And the morons running this country that believe we can spend ourselves into prosperity make me want to puke. So when all you morons squeal tax the rich, it's because you want to take money from them to waste on stupidity like this school district is doing. The problem isn't that the government doesn't take enough, it's that it wastes money that it does take on stupidity like this. It's called sustainability, and debt spending isn't sustainable.

So I don't see what you DO like about this plan. Unless you aren't happy that the government only takes 33% of your income to waste on stupidity. But people like you are exactly why California and this country in general are failing. Pay for the things you need in cash, THAT is investment. Don't steal from everyone else to pay for what only a few people will benefit from. How will a school in CA benefit me by using my tax money to subsidize their solar experiment?
