I found your video while taking the Next Ten state budget quiz. Really, really clear, sane, and NOT Boring. You can write. Where did you learn?

An additional update. I have updated and re-produced the video. It now shorter (30 min) and has the latest data represented.

I have been wanting to understand how public education funding works for quite some time now, but did not quite know where to begin. This presentation is succinct, clear and held me captive for 39.17 straight minutes. Thank you for making this remarkable presentation!

One update. Due to the passage of Proposition 25 on November 2, 2010, the California State Legislature will no longer need a 2/3 supermajority vote to pass a budget. It will still need a 2/3 vote to raise taxes, however. But in any case, I will eventually need to update the video to reflect this fact.
