That's a nice looking garlic tree.

Or, hear me out... We give that money to the billionaires instead so they can be marginally more rich than they already are and the teachers can go work for them in an Amazon warehouse or something.

My current rep isn't literate. If you're not sure who my rep is, google "Kid Rock handjob" and you'll know who my rep is. If I wasn't buying a home in Boulder County I'd consider running against her.
