"Layoff 200 more teachers.."  
Shame upon the Alaska State Senate majority.  Voting down the House`s school tax HB115 without even vetting it or allowing any amendments from the minority.
The conflicted and corrupted Senate majority.  They have to keep those subsidies flowing to those three international corporations controlling access to, and competition for our resources and their benefit and value.  
They are so quick to throw education public safety and infrastructure in the gutter to pay fealty to, and cover losses for, and assume risk for, the slope cartel and it`s proxies, above our constitutional obligations as citizens. These conflicted Senators will drag their shame right to their re-election campaigns hopefully. And it will serve them right.
