I'm actually for this. Hagan gets something right for once. The War on Drugs has been a massive failure and has led to nothing more than overcrowded prisons with nonviolent offenders as we continue releasing legitimate criminals of violent crimes out earlier and earlier.
Bigben you are incorrect. Boardman's performance index was 103.8, Austintown's was 99.2. Austintown might have fared better in designation because they were at a lower starting point.
Sad to see this happen. It's events like these that tarnish the reputations of unions. I feel bad for all the younger workers who were screwed over by the old folks just looking for a little more gold in their parachute...But it's ok, unions are dwindling, and will be replaced by common sense.
Should've let the Cavs bring their D-League team here instead of the antiquated Canton Civic Center, but the hockey team was more important. Capitalism is all about risks, and Zoldan swung and missed on this one.
Why should Boardman have to go open enrollment to accept the money? Lot's of suburban schools with big commercial tax bases (look at Jackson and Perry in Stark County) got increases because the state is reducing the amount of tangible property tax which hurt commercial communities.
Raiding the rainy day fund? You do realize Strickland left office with less than a dollar in the fund and Kasich put hundreds of millions back into it?
How many more voting opportunities do they need? Dave Betras already drives the van around the ghetto rounding up people to go vote for Barry...they have a month to vote early. We should get rid of early voting.
