My state of Texas has a "Tax Free back to school weekend" that's mostly exploited by businesses to restock their office supplies and has virtually no impact on children in lower income families going to de-financed failing school districts.
Ahhh capitalism
Ohhhhhh... That's what it's for... Yeah I honestly don't really ever understand the tax free week in supplies when it's like 6 more dollars when the cost of supplies themselves and need to individually buy them are clearly the more glaring issue.
Of course it's something to help companies exploit and be supported more.
