A good defense of the Class Size Amendment. Please read. I can't cut and paste from the St. Pete
Times, but this is worth the read. Please spread the word to vote NO on Amendment 8.

Basically, the CSA is not as expensive as it seems because we've cut $16B in taxes while lowering class size at the same time. Furthermore, what the people who support Amendment 8 are saying is disingenuous. You can have a cap at 21 or 18. The fact is if you cap a class at 21, you still may have a 22nd child at some point. However, we need to draw the line somewhere.
