[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] So, hmmm, curious, First, how did you become interested in this plan? No offense, but I thought you'd be the last person in the world to think this as a good idea. Anyway. You know, surprising as it might be, Maryland did something similar to this plan a few years back. That's right, Maryland. You know, liberal state government through and through? Way it worked was that part of the public school budget went to buy non-religious text books for the private schools. That's the only way I'd be comfortable with Bush's plan working, pretty much. "You say you need a table and two chairs? Okay, here ya' go." or ... "I need $100." "For what?" "Well, you know. Stuff." "What kind of stuff?" "Stuff, stuff." "Tough. Go away." Now, for example, if a church is running a soup kitchen with a budget of $100, and they want to expand, fine, give 'em an extra $100 to do so ... but check their books. If their budget goes from $100 to $150, what happened to that other $50 you gave 'em? Don't allow organizations to which you give money cut their budgets in the areas they specificly go to you for help in. "We gave you that money to spend on the soup kitchen, not to re-upholster your pews." "Yeah, but we put the money you gave us into the soup kitchens and took the money we were spending on the soup kitchens for this!" "Doesn't work that way, buddy." [/QB][/QUOTE]
