Actually a WA judge is ordering the state legislature to come up with the money for schools because, per the state constitution:

SECTION 1 PREAMBLE. It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders, without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste, or sex.

SECTION 2 PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM. The legislature shall provide for a general and uniform system of public schools. The public school system shall include common schools, and such high schools, normal schools, and technical schools as may hereafter be established. But the entire revenue derived from the common school fund and the state tax for common schools shall be exclusively applied to the support of the common schools.

I grew up in Yakima (The Palm Springs of Washington) and when asking certain friends where their dad worked they would answer "the ball bearing plant north of Selah."

We all knew NOT to ask further.

Love those huge ass dishes pointed directly west. Anyone with a knowledge of RF and geography knew exactly what was up. I wonder how they felt when they punched I-82 through to bypass the canyon.
