Let’s dream a little more realistic here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Will those be good uses? Idk 🤷♂️ I’d imagine they’ll do more good than if they had no money or if that money just went out of state or if we still spent a ton of money on enforcing laws related to weed. I have no interest in letting perfect be the enemy of better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Also, I’m not sure why it’s being presented as though the lottery hasn’t provided money to school. https://fox8.com/news/does-my-lottery-ticket-purchase-help-ohio-schools/amp/ tldr is it’s over 31 billion (now, that’s an older article) since 1974. Sure seems like that’s a useful amount to me… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have empty classrooms full of thousands of technology boxes unwrapped because you don’t have teachers to implement it. Or you continue to throw money into terrible districts while capping others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use of the funds is a separate discussion entirely, but the lottery has supported public schools. That’s not even debatable. If people are unhappy about how schools are funded they should open their wallets and pass levies instead of hoping sin taxes fix all of their problems iyam.

I don’t disagree, but Ohio and the way they find schools is literally illegal per the Supreme Court and should operate the way states like Indians and PA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDD Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Don’t they use the lottery money as the funding and not adding to the school funding? Like that 34 billion is great but that means they could have used 68 billion in that time instead they used 34 billion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it’s (in part) how they fund education. 16 minutes ago, JDD said: Like that 34 billion is great but that means they could have used 68 billion in that time instead they used 34 billion sure, but the issue isn’t the lottery and their contributions, it’s the fact that education is otherwise underfunded.
