1/2 ¢ sales tax increase for schools? In a state that gives sales tax $$$$$ to multinational corporations?

When good, well-intentioned people, people who work hard to save our public schools, are scammed it is very difficult to convince those people that they are being scammed.
Save Our Schools. This is a fine cause that thinking people across America know is a necessity if we intend to assure decent public education for all. What happens when a school superintendent and a school board ask for a 1/2¢ sales tax increase to support public schools?
Well, candidates for the coming school board elections repeat the pre-framed “two-sides” limited debate based on the same limited information. Read Florida Today HERE. This is as sad as can be imagined.
Half informed people and half informed candidates cannot make viable decisions.
THE ISSUES THAT ARE NOT MENTIONED ARE THE PROBLEMS.
As a “tax incentive” the state allows certain retail companies and many other corporations, businesses and organizations to keep the sales taxes and/or exchange them with other corporations.
