I just want to put this here for context...
NY Independent Budget Office FY 2026: https://www.ibo.nyc.gov/assets/ibo/downloads/pdf/education/2025/2025-december-a-slow-start-limited-progress-in-first-years-towards-class-size-compliance.pdf
Thanks for these. The New York State law that the city just comply with further contextualizes things.
- Strong teacher union making sure class sizes stay reasonable
- Politicians working to fund the public school systems
What’s not to like?
So he spent 700 million on schools ... in order to comply with state law.
Obviously, the Republicans are outraged. They hate complying with laws.
Hey, $700M is a lot of money! That's $81.50/ per New Yorker! That's $6.80 every month! Where are poorer New Yorkers going to get that kind of money? From some kind of public transit discount?!

Yeah seriously. I wonder what the article itself has to say about it. Probably nothing. Or just throwing absolute numbers around, like Joe Sixpack could never afford.
In a budget for 8½ million people, 700M is not much.

That fucking bastard did what now?
Doesn't he know that educating people is a bad thing?!!?

Look, he just got out of the pool, there's no pleasing you people
Haven’t you ever heard of shrinkage?
school budgets are dumb, my nyc high school would have the heat on in the spring because if they didn't use up the heat, they'd get less next year??
