The situation is still quite the same. Statically so far 46 states have faced shortfalls totaling over $130 billion in 2011 which in consequence going to effect our education system adversely. While they are inviting people to discuss on this matter, instead of limiting the invitation to only 5 guests they should invite more people like Aaron DelSignore, Capella who dedicated themselves for the social well-being.
