State education board OKs $10.9B budget request – Capitol News IL

Overall, the $10.9 billion request would be a slight decrease from the current budget of just over $11 billion. But that is only because funding for early childhood education, which totals nearly $750 million this year, is being shifted in the upcoming year to the newly created Department of Early Childhood. Otherwise, the request seeks a $350 million increase in the Evidence-Based Funding formula.

Wow only $10.9B tax dollars for a crappy education system and result. Hey, hey!! The shifting of a mere $750M and a whole new Department of Early Childhood in the State’s department of education pops up!! (whatever the hell that is)

Wow, we really needed that too…we should have more and more of all of that sort of expansion, increased spending, development of useless prOgrams that have no hope of having any impact, the wasting of tax dollars and lining the pockets of more and more “educators”, staff and PhD’s.

Bottomless pit of waste. Pathetic.
