I love how everyone assumes they have any idea what a teachers job includes to the extent that they can comment on how much their being paid. Do you know what teachers are paid? Do you know what their hours are? Do you know how much work they do out of the school? Do you know how many shit head parents they have to deal with? And how regularly?

If you can come up with a SPECIFIC instance where you KNOW a teacher works "x" hours, making "y" amount of money, doing "z" responsibilities, then you might have a leg to stand on. Until then it's pure speculation.

In Ohio, at least, teachers are considered public employees and so their salaries are public record. I work at a school so I know a bit of what teachers have to deal with, but one still can't quantify it 100%.

Neither do most people that are tards in any line of work. Being a tard is just shitty in general. People that have tardish tendencies should definitely not become teachers.

Yes, she's an idiot. And yes, she'll probably lose her job.


Meanwhile, Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan, just lost the bank $2 billion in failing to supervise his traders who were placing bets in the market on credit default swaps that were so massive, that they were distorting market pricing. In fact, by the time they "unwind" the positions, I'm guessing the losses will be up to 20x that. And by the way, that money Dimon and co. are playing around with, is not their money; it's their creditors money (people who have deposited their money with the bank... including me, I have / had an account at Chase) which are federally ensured; meaning, if the bank does something wreckless and stupid-- like bundling toxic mortgages and trading them on the market as in 2008-- they're backed up by taxpayers money in case the bank sustains losses and cannot back up their deposits.

And after all that, guess who still has his job? Including his multi-million dollar bonus?

It's easy to post a video and complain about some crappy teacher who is killing themselves working for peanuts in some urban ghetto.

It's a lot harder, however, to figure out where the REAL waste is, in the U.S... and do something to stop it.

Things like this have been happening for a long time, but for some reason I've been hearing more about them in the last few years. We get all this shit on us through legal manipulation and targeted consumerism, it's actually depresseing. When you have companies like Sony trying to install a way to get your video games to pause so they can play an advertisement and new bills that say it's illegal to fast forward through the commercials on your PVR...it's just absolute bullshit.

I hope sony is dumb enough to try it, then when they are boycotted by the gaming community, they can go out of business and theyll serve as a reminder to other would-be greedy companies.

Totally agree. Also, the highlighted part, is that true? That would be *outrageous*! :evil:
