True story
I had to pay a ticket about 20 years ago in a little town. I was in a hurry and the clerk was a haughty bitch. Like her clerk job made her God or something. Anyways after having to wait for 15 minutes with no one else in there and then jumping thru her little hoops. I paid the fine. There was like 8 cents change I was to recieve but she had to get a form saying I was getting change back. I said keep the change, buy yourself some ho ho's or something. And started to leave. She started yelling my name to come get the change. Unfortunatly as i got out the door a cop was next to me and put me under arrest for disorderly conduct. Put me in a cell where I sat for 3 hours. Then he said they wouldnt press charges and to go home

If it was done right it would be enough for their education. As it is now, it isnt enough to pay the bloated bureaucracy... And I mean at both the state and federal levels.

Why replace text books
arent the science books from the beggining of last century still relevant?
The average monthly retirement check for California teachers was $4,256 back in 2010, and I'm sure it's higher today.
That's over $51,000 a year, most of it paid by us tax payers. There are currently 862,000 retired public educators receiving these checks, do the math, it's unsustainable.
We've had so many propositions that raise taxes to fund the public school system in this state it's silly.
Yet, the school system is still failing.
The silver bullet was the proposition to allow a state lottery, that was going to solve all of our education problems statewide, but like all taxes the left get their hands on, it went straight to the general fund to grow government. California is the model for progressive/liberal failure.

Where did your number come from? According to http://www.sacbee.com/2014/01/08/6054294/editorial-a-71-billion-teacher.html and http://www.smdailyjournal.com/articles/opinions/2014-01-10/op-ed-pay-off-teacher-pension-debt/1776425116248.html The average monthly check is less than $3,700 per year.
They also claim California teachers don't pay into or receive Social Security when they retire. They also pay 8% of their pay to their pensions.

You are correct, California teachers do not pay into SS, they pay into a state fund called CalSTRS.
The problem with that is, when that fund does not have money to fund retirements, the sate will take it from the general fund.
California politicians did the same thing with the state lottery revenue.

California takes in about $406billion annually, we spend over $480biilion annually, where's the surplus coming from?
We're also $419,000,000,000 in debt.
Do you ever get anything right Chezzy? LOL

[h=1]Report: California slips to world's 9th largest economy[/h] California has long had an economy larger than most nations, but nominal growth has once again seen it slip on the top 10 list.
The state dropped to ninth on the list of world’s largest economies as measured by gross domestic product in 2010, according to a report this month from the Center for Continuing Study of the California Economy.
In the early 2000s, California was fifth in terms of GDP, which is the value of its goods and services. But slow growth – 1.7% annually since 2000, adjusted for inflation – has helped faster-growing countries catch up.
