Nevada court defunds private school handout

Good news, good news, Boss!

In recent years, the people of Nevada became saddled with what is probably the most generous and wasteful private school handout program in America. It gave parents of kids in private schools up to $5,000 a year. Just because. It's been described as a "reverse Robin Hood" program.

Now the Nevada Supreme Court has correctly ruled 4 to 2 that the funding mechanism for this program violates the Nevada Constitution by using funds that are supposed to be allocated for public schools.

The real question is: Where did they find 2 justices who are partisan enough to support funding these handouts?
