We repurchased 10 million shares totaling $1.2 billion at an average price per share of $119.

They are just greedy. They have the money, but giving the money to the rich is evidently more important.

So which is it. Goal post move or goal post move

How about you instead focus on something that actually matters:

Young voters overwhelmingly say they would support President Biden over former President Trump in a hypothetical head-to-head match-up if the 2024 presidential election were held today, according to a poll released Wednesday.

In the Economist/YouGov poll — conducted via web-based interviews Dec. 16-18 — more than half (53 percent) of registered voters under 30 said they would support Biden, and less than a quarter (24 percent) said they would support Trump.

Another 10 percent said they would support another candidate, 4 percent said they were not sure, and 9 percent said they wouldn’t vote.

The younger generations are voting more and more. And they are seeing through the bullshit.

Then why are talking about money?

Because a school needs money to operate. There is a minimum amount of money it takes to operate a school. Taking money away from an already struggling school will just make things worse.

You said the were siphoning off money which isn’t true

So then where is the money coming from? The government's budget is a zero sum game.

That's not the claim though. Quit trying to move the goal posts.

Republicans are trying to destroy education by siphoning money away from already underfunded schools. Y'all aren't trying to fix it. You're just focusing on culture war bullshit.

Nobody is intentionally increasing crime

Republicans and people like you are trying to destroy education. And that leads to higher crime rates.

So ultimately you're saying you want higher crime rates.

they destroyed California

like locusts consuming all

leaving a wasteland California.

they are starting to do that in Oregon.

These are emotionally loaded terms.

People are moving to Texas, Florida and other red states. That’s a fact.

There are people moving to and from all states at all times. Water is wet. Demographics will change. The sky is blue.

we just keep them incarcerated.

How very freedom. We are number one in prisoners per capita. Land of the Free my ass.

Any system that intentionally increases crime, prisoners per capita, and cost is a bad system. There are alternatives that reduce all three. But it requires everyone investing in education.

I distrust that citation because they rate CNN as mostly factual

CNN is atrocious for bias, but at least in comparison to say fox news, they're much more factual. Far, far from perfect, but significantly better.

I would point you to the study they cited, and in turn the publicly available census data instead.)

And that's fine. But that's not what a link to fox news is.

I see that in Oregon as well, moving here because they destroyed California with their politics. My concern is they will move like locusts consuming all the resources and leaving a wasteland behind like they did in California. I can already see where they are starting to do that in Oregon.

This is emotionally loaded, misleading, and just silly.

And anybody could just as easily claim Texas has been destroyed by their politics. It's just a meaningless statement.

The local communities can vote a tax in.

I already addressed that:

"On top of that, marginalized demographics do not have the generational wealth required to get better jobs, meaning they can’t bear the burden."

It’s not my job to pay another schools upkeep. I

I can't fathom why somebody would want higher crime rates. Failing to educate the public leads to higher crime rates.

Republicans truly are the party of crime.
