BRANSTAD, BUSINESSES AND EVIL ISEA EYEING $3 BILLION SALES TAX HIKE

The fix is in!!  

Branstad set no academic objectives for the Education Summit because that was not his purpose.   He wants a sales tax increase to pay for property tax reductions for businesses.  Look for Branstad to call for a special legislative session to raise the sales tax and bogusly claim for fixing schools.  Gronstal will go along with the evil scheme, without a wimp. 

The beady eyes of Branstad, businesses and the evil ISEA teacher’s union are deviously eyeing a sales tax increase (about $3 Billion in10 years--that  businesses don't pay).  It's for the evil constructivists in the teacher’s union--and property tax relief for big businesses.  The bogus Education Summit is about money, not better educating Iowa’s kids!!  That is why you won't hear the evil ISEA screaming about reforms. 

The large Iowa school districts, led by constructivist educrat Lew Finch, who left the Cedar Rapids school district in worse shape than he found it--are clamoring for more money for, of all things, students at risk.  This of course covers all kids attending Iowa public schools, and especially the larger Iowa public schools--that put the kids at terrible risk. 

Constructivists have once again duped businesses to believe more money will produce K-12 graduates with better skills.  The following charts prove otherwise, but businesses won't  mind because they are eyeing property tax relief resulting from the sales tax increase--they don't pay.

MORE MONEY FOR IOWA SCHOOLS DOES NOT HELP

TOTAL COSTS PER STUDENT SOAR OUT OF CONTROL
