$20 million divided by 4800 = $4167 after tax dollars per individual assuming 4800 are all working adults.

Somehow I would a. have trouble believing that survey and b. go looking for a new home. School budgets are routinely vote in by parents of children K-12 and voted against by everyone else.They are keyed to the attitude only while MY Johnny is in school. Add a few who think the school is there to entertain them on Friday nights with sports activities or is viewed as a baby sitting service... And how much did they pay School Perceptions to hoodwink the residents?

Nevertheless The best way to improve education is vote down the budgets and demand academic standards as the price for a yes vote. After all isn't that what the residents are supposed to be purchasing?

Failed systems = Zero funding. It's a carrot and a big mother stick in one package.

Your claim back it up. The words came out of your mouth and no one elses's No ducking now..quack quack quack

What claim was that? But since you brought it up back it up.

in all fairness ....

That's hearsay. In anything remotely resembling objectivism. So instead of using subjective or non sourced information take a few minutes to do something like the following.....the objective way. That's what we deal with here.

In using the following sites I would not be eating at Mcdonald's on a locals wages but on my retirement i would consider living there. Currently I am expat in yet another country. Quick tip for medical if you have a plan in the USA and it's not Obamacare but military retirement consider DAN Divers Network air medevac at $70-$80 per year from anywhere in the world for any injury or illness not just dive accidents.

or this one Prices for goods and services increased as the value of hryvnia, the local Ukrainian currency, dropped.

Hryvnia to US Dollars Costs of living in Ukraine increased since 2013.

17 September 2015 Ukrainian Rada approved a raise in the official minimum of the costs of living from 1176 to 1330 hryvnia/month, and the minimum salary from 1218 to 1378 hryvnia/month. The changes will be implemented from 1 December 2015.

Accordingly, the minimum hourly wages changed from 7.29 to 8.25 hryvnia ($0.33 to $0.38 per hour).

Official minimum costs of living for different categories of people (per month):

Children 0-5 years old: 1167 hryvnia ($53)
Children 6-17: 1455 hryvnia ($67)
Adults 18+: 1374 hryvnia ($63)
Disabled: 1074 hryvnia ($49)

However, experts say that the real costs of living in Ukraine is higher than even the newly modified official numbers.

Andrey Vigiringsky, the deputy director of the company “Public Audit”, stated that their calculations were made on the basis of the factual costs of living and inlfation, in order to match the standards of in 2013, reported, reported http://Finance.ua.

According to “Public Audit”, the minimum salary should be 2487 hryvnia/month, and pensions 1938 hryvnia/month. Economist Andrey Martynyuk agrees that the minimum salary should be at least 2,500 hryvnia/month. Kiev’s lawyer Stanislav Batrin believes that the costs of living should be raised to 7,000 hryvnia/month within 3 years.

According to UBS rating released in September 2015, Kiev is the cheapest capital in the world to live in. The report published by the bank states that a family needs $1237/month to get by in the Ukrainian capital, with the further $540 required to pay the rent. (Those numbers are substantially higher than what locals actually live on.) Kiev is also at the bottom of wage charts by UBS.

Local realtors say that the average price for renting a studio apartment in Kiev is around $230/month. Larger apartments will cost more. Regional prices for apartment rent are significantly lower.

or any number of readily available information sources.

I used two not entirely at randomn.

The first one is from a similar couple in 2005. An examination shows the situation has changed but one site claims $50US a week. and gives current and corrected government figures including cost of living per child or adult.

Currently with the hyrvnia at 43.1 to the USD

With the increase of costs in the USA and and the devaluation of the worth of the US Dollar another site would be http://expatarrivals.com to compare and a lot of other information from weather to the least useful McDonalds. Medical being most important as most if not all health supply systems are worth zilch in other countries.

Numbeo provides comparison between target countries and a second third choice country. For example I live well in Mexico but have merchant marine friends in Ukraine. I can compare costs between known situations.

Source? Cite? or propaganda.Try again you lost twice daddy george will not be proud of you.

What's the cost of a meal in India or China? What's the cost of medicine? What's the cost of a cell phone? Your comparison of our overpriced, over inflated phony economy to that of any other country is worthy of one of Lakoff's disciples or what's his face Krugman but it doesn't stand any tests other than spreading propaganda. Try some facts that hold water and then come back and try again. Your statement you defend it..... .

The best answer is never never ever vote for a school budget Why feed the hand that is biting you?
