Another Abbott Decision

According to the folks over at Powerline The Kansas State Supreme Court, like New Jersey, has decided to override the democratic process and dictate educational spending. "The decision will force a special legislative session and a possible tax increase. The Kansas Constitution apparently says the legislature shall "make suitable provision for finance" of schools. The court used that general provision to take it upon themselves to decide that the legislature's funding was short of what the Constitution required and the increase needed to be ... drum roll .... $285 million."

It's happening all over. It's clear that the will of the people no longer matters.
