I would think the teachers would learn. Their leaders will never support them.
Average teachers make 44 grand. That is awful. Boy you would think that they made a million according to some one here. By time you take out taxes, they are bringing home MAYBE 1500 every two weeks....not much to live on.
“$500,000 annually” Plus perks of course!
Heck, where can I get a job for $60,000 doing nothing?
The root cause of the problem with education and the power the unions have is the single payer, socialized schooling system. We need to go back to a free market, capitalist system.
That would also go a long way toward reducing our nation’s debt problem. The single payer, socialized school system is one of the largest entitlement programs in the country.
The chances of going back to a capitalist are slim because the middle class and upper middle class are feeding at the trough. Like any entitlement, people don’t want to give up their government subsidy.
