They are smart to get started trying to keep up. Gasoline will be $5.70 a gallon, and a Big Mack $3.75 and fries $2.00!
Average salary of gov worker is $175,000 a year for nothing.
Just teachers getting their share of the funny money.

Ha? Do you mean $75k?
Um.. You want them to math? Not happening. But they got what they wanted so why would they care? They don’t care if it’s funny money or any other kind, they got it by doing absolutely nothing so they can continue to do the same. Getting paid to do effectually nothing. Forty seven percent of America is doing the same. You have to hand it to the communists/ socialists, the numbers are against us.

Don’t look now, but I think a big mac is already more than that in some places.
Yesterday, quarter pounder with cheese, fish sandwich, and a small coke...$9.78
You have it right. Wages lag general inflation. The current lag is exacerbated by unemployment. However, the increases are sure to come across the economy. The teachers had their window of opportunity and took advantage of it.
The increase is about 4% per year. We will be fortunate if the inflation (devaluation) rate is a mere 4% over the next 4 years. We will be getting a COLA SS notification in the coming weeks. I wonder if it will be near 4%
Can anyone post a copy of the Chicago teachers pay scale? That would be interesting to see.
We all work to support our Public Union Teachers. We need a reva O lution
Bullsh$t. They are part of the problem -- a big part.
