minus-squareyodeljunkmanenvy@piefed.socialOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·16 days agoOkay bear with me here. So school budgets will still go up by the rate of inflation. Inflation is how much more expensive things have become, so in inflation-adjusted dollars, they will be getting the same amount of money. Does that make sense?
minus-squareT00l_shed@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·16 days agoYes, ok bear with me. You know inflation is always 100% accurate to reflect real costs right?
