of 4% on retailers on taxable sales at retail of tangible personal property, 100% of

provided for in section 8 of this article, and other tax revenues provided by
law, shall be dedicated to this fund. Payments from this fund shall be made in full
on a scheduled basis, as provided by law. Beginning in the 1995-96 state fiscal year
and each state fiscal year after 1995-96, the state shall guarantee that the total
