March for Calif Future
Ok AG, it's the typical suspects. They think that marching and throwing a fit is going to do something to change our states financial problems. What they're wanting is to raise taxes on business and possibly change prop 13. They're crying that the schools need more money, and boo hooing about the teacher layoffs. But not a word about what caused it. They blame it on the rich and big business not paying their fair share. Of course it's the unions and La Raza et al. The head of this seems to be the Calif. Federation of Teachers and a coalition of all the rest. Here's who's who:Coalition Supporters
