Who would have thought it would also force an entire school district to close down? Here are the details from the Daily Reporter:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>Classes in a small, financially struggling school district in northern Tennessee have been canceled until officials can find a way to generate more revenue. <\/i><i>Clay County Director of Schools Jerry Strong said the school board made the decision Thursday night after struggling with budget concerns for three years. He said the district doesn&#8217;t have enough money to pay for partially unfunded government mandates.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rationing.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-12618\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rationing.jpg?resize=227%2C227\" alt=\"rationing\" width=\"227\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rationing.jpg?w=227&amp;ssl=1 227w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/rationing.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 227px) 100vw, 227px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ahh yes, the dreaded \u201cUnfunded Mandate\u201d problem.
