Corbett's education cuts hurt poor the most. He is PA's new republican governor.

"Under Corbett's plan, 73 districts would lose more than $600 per student in primary subsidies, while 49 districts would lose less than $100 per student, according to the law center's analysis.

The 73 districts that lose the most have an average poverty rate almost four times that of the 49 districts that lose the least, based on the group's analysis.

Fox Chapel Area School District in suburban Pittsburgh would lose $57 per student. Its neighbor, Pittsburgh, would lose 10 times that, or $581 per student. Pittsburgh's student poverty rate is more than four times that of Fox Chapel's" <end clip>


Note that Fox Chapel is a rich Pittsburgh area suburb.

1. That makes sense... Corbett's supporters are the "haves".

I'm in PA--- Corbett was recently booed at the Pittsburgh St. Patrick's Day Parade and the opening of arena football at the Consol Energy Center.

He should be booed everywhere he rears his head.

2. Corbett has no respect for people.
