Actually, I think Cali spends closer to $6,800/student/year. And while you're on the subject, if you are a typical Cali (as if there really is a typical) family with 2 kids, then you probably don't pay your "fair share" of education or anything else. 2 kids x $6,800 = $13,600. At the top state income tax rate of 9% you'd have to earn and adjusted gross income of about $151,000 to pay $13.6K in income taxes. Let alone police, fire, flood control, roads, etc. Neglecting sales taxes for the moment, gee, I wonder who picks up the slack on this revenue stream, for those middle class people earning $40-$100K? Why it must be the poor people! Or could it be those "Rich People" who aren't paying their "fair share". Which one do you think it is?
