Downturns in tax revenue will always provide a reality check for the socialized education system.<br /><br />Here's a better idea. Sell of one, two or all three of these universities and see if there is demand for all the education they provide. One presumes the state of Arizona might net one or two billion dollars from their sale (not to mention eliminating subsidies to each university) and with continued restraint in government spending the State of Arizona might be able to reduce the tax burden on Arizona taxpayers.<br /><br /><A HREF="http://mises.org/story/3250" REL="nofollow">What an idea.</A>Thane Eichenauerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12848580360960232789noreply@blogger.com
