New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie gets in a heated exchange about education funding.
(Excerpt) Read more at michigancapitolconfidential.com ...
What would happen if Christi fired all the teachers, dissolved the union, and turned every government school into an independent charter?
What would happen if after he turned every government school in the state into a charter school, and then gave all citizens and all businesses a tax credit?
What if, at the same time, he gave every business and citizen a MASSIVE reduction in property taxes?
What if this tax credit went to the student, educational fund, or school of the citizen's or business's choice?
What would happen if at the end of ten years every school in the state was turned into a private school and parents paid for their own kid's education with charity taking care of the poor.
What if at the same time state sales taxes were reduced by two thirds?
What if he **immediately** reduced zoning and other regulations so that independent teachers could open one-room schools in their homes? ( Imagine the reduction in the cost of schooling.)
I would just love to see a Republican with the gonads to do that.
discussed last week without the video but check out this thread- specifically the link at post #29- evidently this woman who’s complaining she does not make $83K makes almost $87K...

Christie is such a hero.
mark
she says she works for 184 days (must be nice)... and gets paid ONLY $83,000 a year (she misspoke and said per day... at least i hope she misspoke). she earns about $451 per day
the average person in America makes roughly $42,000. the average person works 50 weeks a year and gets 2 weeks vacation. total days worked, not including vacation, 250. earned income per day: $168
and this is not taking into account the benefits teachers receive, which would be better that what the average person receives... and teachers do not contribute to their benefits package.
to me, seems the lefties in education are the ‘rich’ in comparison. maybe they should be placed in a special tax bracket... because they sure don’t seem to be paying their fair share.
What would happen?.... The liberals heads would explode.
Can we clone him!? We need him in all 50 states...
He sure is!
