Ct has been in trouble for years since rowland worked out that MASSIVE sweetheart deal with the unions, primarily teacher's union that went to cover pensions & other fees. it's the elephant in the room that no one dare speak of. every year our taxes went up, one reason they said, to cover education. --right- meanwhile parents/teacher were picking our own pockets to cover basic supplies like kleenex & sticky notes. funding went to the unions as opposed to the students & imo that's ONE of the many reasons the state went under-& now the middle-class is gone. they have either super-wealthy, or impoverished, & now, here we are.
