Redundant statements must be "news" now.

Public schools don't like vouchers.  Athens News article here.  Of course they don't want competition, it's a government.

I like how they use the phrase "public money".  Like money grows on a "public" tree and only government can have it.

It comes from taxpayers' hard work..............then it's confiscated by the government.  However, there is no such thing as "public money".

Obama supports the bill in Congress to allow states to collect sales tax on internet sales.   Of course he does.  This is not news.

There are quite a few Republicans that like this idea as well.  I'll be surprised if Representative Bill Johnson doesn't vote for this.  Not impressed with him at all.

I love it when they say that Ohio "loses"  $$$$$s due to not being able to collect sales tax on items purchase and shipped from out of state.  How can they "loose" it if they never had it?

The reason that it's not fair for in state stores to compete with out of state stores doesn't fly either.  The shipping costs usually are equal to or greater than the sales tax one would have to pay in state to begin with.  So, it's really a level playing field.

Our so called government will never stop attaching leaches to us until we are dried up prunes.
