If we have to cut dollars for education and parks and rec where in world are we getting the money to sue the federal government for helping people who aren’t rich. Are you using my tax dollars when I totally support this bill soon to become law?

Ole Boy System of Idaho–you are all rich and have jobs or great retirement. How many low-income kids are in the Charter State Schools? How many low-income kids are in the “Alternative Schools?” From what I remember of my education studies in the University of Missouri that could be coined “Tracking.” Isn’t that a federal offense!!! Watch what you ask for the Federal Government may counter suit Idaho!

Our nation was founded by patriots that moved here to escape the oppression or outright tyranny of big centralized government. Why don’t people demand the fair tax, teaching civics warning of the dangers of big government (not some politically correct version),and term limits of all politicians to ensure they have to become private citizens and live under the same rules and regulations they pass on the rest of us? Also, how about term limits for the Supreme Court too. Why is it constitutional for local and state politicians to be limited when it is unconstitutional (they say) to limit national politicians? Could it be because the Supreme Ct. is appointed by politicians at the national level, and are thus beholden to them? Maybe it would be good to also have the right to hold special recall elections to remove bad politicians from office when they do things to harm our freedom. If I am not mistaken, they do it in Canada. Why depend on corrupt politicians to impeach and throw their own kind out? KUDOS TO IDAHO!!!!!

Apparently, some folks will show the effects of the Public Education system. While lamentable, they are probably a lot less onerous than the effects of Obamacare.

In Colorado, we are dominated by Democrats in all branches of government, so we the people are working towards the same ends as your legislature.

I feel sorry for the people of Idaho which ranks towards the bottom of every thing education,wages,etc what the Republicans
have done to this state is amazing and that the people have allowed it is even more amazing.People in Idaho have low wages
if their working NO HEALTH CARE for most and just a backwards place to live to bad we cant move Idaho between N.Carolina and S.Carolina it would fit perfect.

I might relocate my family and business to Idaho if the Federal government keeps trying to implement Soviet style health care. I think what you guys did is fabulous and serves as a model for the rest of the country.

Kudos!

As a native Idahoan, I want to thank my legislators that put Idaho before the federal government. I believe in smaller government and I am definately opposed to a public option. This should give us more leverage! Thank you so much! I will remember who you are when elections come around. As for those who voted against it, you shall be remembered as well. Shame on you for putting your party lines ahead of us Idahoans.
