In Mississippi, lawmakers gave
large tax breaks to businesses and wealthy individuals perpetuating the false
belief that Supply Side Economics works. Simultaneously, they have failed to
fund Public Education. As long as Mississippi remains in the control of
Republicans, the state will remain last in the nation for publicly funded
education.
Welcome to a preview of things to
come as the Republicans take more and more control of government. It's a
mystery why average people vote for Republicans when Republicans harm them the
most. Tax breaks for the privileged few and businesses in Mississippi didn't
create any jobs. Poverty and unemployment in Mississippi is still the highest
in the nation.

Tax breaks for wealthy individuals and businesses
in Mississippi damaged education in the state
and provided more wealth for selfish elite white people.

Keep in mind, in Mississippi, the
affluent white population send their kids to tax supported Christian Schools so their racist children won’t have to associate with brown and black kids. Republican
tendencies, around the country, to siphon money from public education in the form
of individual tax credits for private church schools is the funding problem,
for public schools, in many states. Mississippi has been particularly hard hit.
You can thank the Republican Party
for this horrendous situation in Mississippi and get ready for more shenanigans
on a national level now that these Republicans have taken over the entire
Congress. Throw in a Republican President and you won't recognize America
anymore. Republicans have not always been this way, but in their current form, they
are an enemy of the American dream.
