Teacher needs a new car.
More likely a nose job. Healthcare bennies and pensions, rather than salaries, are what’re bleeding property owners dry. At least the ones paying full freight. So do NOT get me started on what NYS’s STAR program is doing to distort the real estate market.
“Teacher needs a new car.”
Right! Drive through the parking lot of your local town hall and look at the high dollar cars of the bureaucrats. Audis and BMWs abound.
Took some steers to the market last week and they brought a measly $1 per pound, about the same price I was getting in the 70s. Certainly isn’t reflected in the cost of meat in the store.
You live in Jersey? I do. Property taxes here fund education. Every time those dingbats get a raise my property taxes go up. It’s either that or some f**king illegal alien’s kid is jacking it up!
I know you are just being funny. However, as a very conservative Christian and an educator, I am tired of the constant bashing of “all” educators. Yes, We have a lot of trash in my profession but there are many of us who fight the good fight daily. We need more conservatives to join the fight and become educators instead of continually complaining without offering a realistic solution. Again, I am not angry at you I am just tired of all of the digs thrown at educators here. Thanks for letting me vent.
A few years ago in the county where I live the teachers tried to use the pity vote to get a big pay raise/tax increase by claiming a teacher who was single could not afford to purchase a house in this county. Since the median price of a home here is well over $200, and well above the national median, a bunch of us tax-paying peons started to fight back with a campaign saying that most people here could only afford a home if they were married or living with others and sharing the mortgage and expenses.
The teachers' raise lost and they were not happy, but they have never tried that tactic again.
