"Corbett’s plan will cut basic education by almost $550-million, a 10 percent reduction from the current year; and cut another $650-million from higher education.
Four state universities, including Temple University and Lincoln University, will lose more than 50 percent of their state funding. The state system of higher education, which includes the state universities, will also see its funding cut in half."
How does this make any sense?!?!

Who is Corbett really supporting? The people or the money that got him elected? It's not the people who elect candidates it's campaign contribution.
