Statement of Principles


Nevada government keeps getting bigger and BIGGER. We deserve minimum, strictly limited, constitutional government in this State.

Forget all this blather about a $3B "shortfall". The budget for the '12/'13 biennium should be no more than $200M.

CCSD Provides Large Subsidy to Stage Musicals

Originally posted in a LVRJ Forum

That "small" $2K contribution (whatever the actual number is) is tip-of-the-iceberg. Nevada taxpayers pay >$10,000 per year PER STUDENT for you kids to text message about this activity all day. We amortize the bonds used to pay for the theatre. We pay Ms. Hemme's (indeed, her entire DEPARTMENT's) salary, benefits, etc. We pay for all the CCSD bureaucrats who have to be engaged to deal with the fallout from this production -- lawyers, administrators, custodians, etc. Gosh, we even have to pay CCSD's CPA to cook the books. So don't feed me that line that this process is "self-sufficient". Like Cirque.

This is all one big game of bait-&-switch, as CCSD was sold to us to teach the 3R's, a mission they definitely do *not* accomplish.
