      <![CDATA[What @2 said, Ed. Stop fucking about and start funding K-12 education properly. It is ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL that there are schools in Seattle that have undrinkable water in the water fountains, that have no heating controls and that have ceiling tiles that have fallen off and hurt kids. (Arbor Heights in West Seattle and Bagley in North Seattle are the two in question here, but there are others in shocking state, too).<br>
<br>
Meanwhile...yes on both votes.

      <![CDATA[@2 That may be the best comment you have ever left on Slog. I am 100% in agreement with you. <br />
<br />
Ed and the rest, time to get your shit together and find a way for our state to meet its obligations! For real this time! No more delays and no more excuses!<br />

(In the mean time, I'm voting yes on both.)

Don't be a dope. Love em or hate em, the schools are a tangible factor in what makes this a better place to live than many others. Just fucking pay for it like a grown up.<br />

Don't like it? There are plenty of jerkwater towns with no future because families with kids won't live there you can move to cheap.

      <![CDATA[I voted yes on both, but as a legislator I trust that you will make inroads in fulfilling the State's obligation to education in the first place. Property tax levies are meant for one-off circumstances, not as an endless revenue stream to fill the gaps in the budget.
