fellow blogers,

there are ways to legally repeal land tax funding of public schools.

http://www.ohioconstitution.org/2012/05/07/westerville-taxpayers-move-to-repeal-march-tax-increase/

On May 7, 2012 taxpayers for Westerville Schools, with the representation ofthe 1851 Center,commenced circulation of an initiative petition to repeal the 6.71mil tax increase narrowly approved in March after taxpayers defeated a similarmeasure at the November 2011 general election.

The Westerville effort marks the inauguralaction of the 1851 Center in assisting taxpayers in using a previously obscuresection of the Ohio Revised Code to lower their school district tax burdens,while forcing Ohioschool districts to control spending and reign in labor costs rather thanraising taxes.

this is only the beginning of what citizen taxpayers can do with in the lawto raise awareness that school funding threw property tax is unconstitutional.

it is only rational thinking that gave our forefathers the idea that youcould not have equal taxation with out equal representation.

the current  bureaucracy is tainted inmany ways besides  the fact that it dosenot “providefor a thorough and efficient system of common schools funded by the state threwcontributions from all tax payers, not just tax paying land owners.

DeRolphv. State was a landmark case in Ohioconstitutional law in which the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that the state'smethod for funding public education was unconstitutional. Handed down on March24, 1997, the 4-3 opinion said that the state funding system "failsto provide for a thorough and efficient system of common schools"as required by the Ohio Constitution and directed the state to find a remedy.

COLUMBUS:The phrase in the Ohio Constitution that requires the state to provide anadequate system of public schools would be stricken from the document if thehead of a constitutional modernization subcommittee has his way.

Chairman Chad Readler, a Columbus attorney who leads the ConstitutionalModernization Commission’s schools and local government committee, wants toremove the phrase “thorough and efficient” from Article VI of the Constitution.

Justice Francis E. Sweeney Sr., who wrote the majority opinion, scolded thelegislature by calling for a “systematic overhaul” of public education, citingexamples of unsafe buildings and poor academic programming in some districtswhile many suburban districts enjoyed great wealth.

“Today, Ohiostands at a crossroads,” he wrote. “We must decide whether the promise ofproviding to our youth a free, public elementary and secondary education in a‘thorough and efficient system’ has been fulfilled. The importance of this casecannot be overestimated.”

If  in fact our legislators areconsidering changing the system of public schools in our state, we need notinvest any tax collected  moneys untilthey have made a final decision.
