Reply #1: That is such bullshit

If I was a teacher in California public schools I would send a letter to the school and the parents of my students indicating that because of lack of funding there will be no classroom supplies unless either the school district or the parents contribute. Teachers are much too underpaid to expect them to incur this kind of expense. Funny how when conservatives talk about the need to keep taxes low, these never seem to be the kinds of tax breaks they have in mind.
