so a new facility

new bussing

ABOVE the regular school system has no added cost?

It's not a new facility and people have told you that multiple times.
Bus wise, these are still the same kids and busses. They just go to a different place.

75% of the School will be funded by the Government.
Its a public school. No one tried to hide this.

Also the Scholarships for all the kids who graduate from there will be paid for by the University of Akron.
This is new news to me, but I guessed they'd cover at least part of it.
He still put up millions to build the school and the school will do some incredible stuff. They focus on the entire family, which is really cool. They help parents with GEDs and job placement, etc.
Its gotta be weird to be so upset about something like this.

"it's just a tax write off" is one of my biggest pet peeves.

Literally in the middle of the entrance where Lebron posed for photos, there is a huge sign that says "Akron Public Schools".

I don't think people are mad at this. They're mad at LeBron and are just grasping for some way to turn this into something they can rip him for.

Well, Clay Travis is certainly no "tristan"

Lebron can't afford to pay for the whole school because he has to pay for pressure washers to keep the fake racist graffiti off his gate.

I see the cesspool filled up and is spilling over into the MSB. That’s too bad.

Come on. We all know what is happening here. A partisan hack overestimated the crossover of Lebron haters and PT board nutjobs.
OP is used to flinging red meat and getting 30 upvotes without more than a sentence read. Nice to see cooler heads prevailing over here.

I love how stupid people are
I promise you, giving away millions of dollars doesnt make you have more money in your pocket

You would be amazed at how many people think it does

Above the line deductions vs below the line deductions
Deductions vs credits
Two things people should understand much better than they do.
