In reply to T Mind of your Ted Godhead System. A high teachers salary has nothing to do with working hard - pay is based solely on how long your ass has been in its teaching chair. That is unfortunate for teachers who do put in the time and effort to be great at their profession- they are never rewarded for their extra work.

In reply to Dawn Urbanek. Looks like you should've worked a little harder "Dawn" and tried to become a teacher. Sorry for your poor career choices!

Comparing the $78,000 salary at 36 weeks to a person who works 46 week a year would mean teachers in my District are making about $100,000 per year just in salary. The District keeps raising compensation for employees and uses furlough days, class size increases and deferred maintenance to pay for the increases. By 2021 when Jerry Brown has placed the increased CalSTRS contributions on Districts over 100% of the Districts budget will be salaries, pensions and benefits.

Chris–

You’re probably right. Nazis and Manson never work– too extreme. But there is an undeniable gut feeling of 1938 Germany with the teabaggers. Maybe it’s better as an unspoken backstory, undercurrent etc…..

I mean, don’t ya see Marco Rubio or Ted McCarthy Cruz in a WW2 uniform?

In reply to S Moderation Douglas. 183 days is only 36 weeks and 3 days of work. That does not imply a wage of 60,000 a year. A typical private sector worker works 44 to 46 weeks a year.
