State Rep. Carl Rollins actually wants taxpayers to pay state employees to go into the public schools for up to forty hours a year to volunteer.
I wouldn't have believed that if I didn't see it myself.
Rollins could possibly be appointed the chairman of the House Education Committee when the legislature comes back into Frankfort next month.
Did I mention Kentucky isn't exactly doing a good job managing the way it runs our money through public schools?

Surely we can find cheaper "volunteers"

Someone needs to teach Mr. Rollins what the meaning of volunteer. What was this man thinking? He's just lining the pockets of state employees who dont do enough now to earn their pay. Haven't you ever driven by a state worksite, theres one guy doing all the work and four more standing around watching.

Where was this "worksite" specifically?
I don't agree with this bill. Volunteering shouldn't be a paid service. However, the average state employee makes $2,700 per month before taxes, so I don't think he was "lining the pockets" of state employees by any stretch of the imagination.
