5% of the state budget for all those colleges combined.
Where will that five percent go next time then. The revenue will go somewhere...Instead of supporting the small North Dakota town economy and educating people, it'll be used to help Fargo grow using more LSS (that's 4 U oxbow;)?
Mayville would probably immediately go into a recession. Less immediate quality of life for those residents who enjoy watching a local college football game outdoors in October. Count a business or four to close.
Are you for the closing of the GFAFB also to save a few bucks?
