Money borrowed by selling bonds is not used for students or even teachers. It is paid to outsiders such as bond brokers, lawyers, real estate brokers, consultants, contractors and builders. Those outsiders are perfectly happy to invest in a campaign that will result in an approved measure and a 100 or 1000-fold return on their investment. And proponents will SAY ANYTHING, however false, to gain passage.

How about waiting until current bond issues are retired before saddling property owners with more assessments on our tax bills?

Robyn, you don't even live in Mountain View. How is it on your tax bill?
