Why make millions when we can make thousands?

They must figure that $150,000 per year is really combat pay.
Because they are obviously doing a fantastic job with such a high graduation rate, right?
Why not a $1 million a year?
Failure rewarded!
What utter crap. Students are illiterate now... giving the current teachers a raise won’t fix it.
Fire them all and pay them no money then the average salary for the area.
Oh... and drop the lifetime pension bs
I wanted to have the worse reply. What is happening to the fonts here at FR?
Watched a video of Hillary supporters being asked if they support Hillary’s push for Shariah Law in the country......stunningly they all agreed! Just goes to show they haven’t a clue about reality...only what they want it to be and that will rest in a “Person” not in what the person stands for or against.
hey simply believe what they are told.....stunningly so!
Well, if the liberals have their way on everything, fry cooks would be making $100,000 a year, so a teacher’s job wouldn’t be especially well paid (assuming $150,000 is their desired standard). Liberals are mainly concerned with devaluing the dollar, and can pick up the economically-ignorant public school teachers as voters along the way with this plan.
DANG!
You really need to pay someone 150k a year to teach them how to put rubbers on?
This idea is going about as far as the Tigers and Lions this year.
No more pretendies. Teacher salaries HAVE to include the ENTIRE COMPENSATION PACKAGE, and pay for it in that budget year. No more makeups if investments go bad - those are called investments, you're paid money based on risk - you don't get a free ride on risk...
At the end of each budget year, the entire ‘balance’ owed for salaries should be zero. And if that fund only lasts 6 years with platinum health care benefits? Then it only lasts 6 years.
Better yet, dump all benefits and pay the teachers the entire amount. Let them pick what retirement plans or investments (or maybe they'll just upgrade their home or start a business on the side, or some other way of managing that money - heck, maybe they'll blow it on fancy parties - I don't care anymore - get these things off of the budget card.)
Shoot, probably a lot of these teachers will be absolutely angry how much ‘of their money’ was going into expensive benefits and retirement packages. Oh, and you'll likely reach the average of 120k per year JUST by un-hiding the retirement, vacation, sick days, and health care.
Those that can, do.
Those who can't, rip off (er, I mean "teach").
I’m gonna have to stop pulling for the Hurricanes now....sheesh, what an idiotic idea.
Better teachers are always better, but no matter what the quality of the teachers, students who don’t want to learn, won’t anyway. Good students start at home.
This guy sure could have used a better teacher.
When I graduated from the military in the ‘90s, inner city Baltimore offered me a $22,500 a year job teaching, but I had to turn it down because they wouldn’t also pay for my ammo. $150,000 could fund some escape and evasion training and a new carry gun with laser.
