http://news.yahoo.com/chicago-schools-ceo-says-union-asking-too-much-184258744--finance.htmlThe Chicago teachers' Union is demanding a 30% pay increase and class reduction sizes. Keep the below facts in mind:- They work 3 months less than everyone else- The district has a $700 million deficit- Graduation rates hover around 50%- 55% of one Chicago district's teachers make over $100,000 currently- Their retirement fund pays at 75% of their highest pay, which is still more than most taxpayers will ever make.http://chicagolampoon.blogspot.com/search/label/Deerfield%20High%20School%20Teachers%20salaries- 15 "Guidance Counselors" pulling down between $100k and $174k, with the average at $134- A $147k drivers Ed teacher- $148k for a sex ed. teacher- 14 gym teachers each pulling down between $109 and $170k
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
How about we base their pay on standardized testing and graduation rates instead
They need to do to Chicago what they did with Washington D.C. Evaluate them, then fire them. If they have a graduation rate of around 50%. Then the flipping teachers aren't doing their jobs.
That may be a part of it, but mostly it is traceable to the corruption and destruction of Black urban family life and positive cultural values that began with LBJ's Great Society and all the White Liberal know-it-alls who knew 'Just what they needed,' i.e. a free ride on everyone else's dime in return for voting in bondage for Liberals for the rest of their days.
Yeah, unions are soooooo needed.
soon as you find your manhood all else falls into place.
If Ft. Hood was "workplace violence," then the Hindenburg was an air show.
I don't know if sand glows in the dark, but we're gonna find out.
If I demanded a 30% pay increase, I'd be shown the door.
