The average full-time public school teacher will see his or her annual MEA membership dues increased by $111.90, from $457.40 to $569.30 annually, a 25 percent increase.

These dues amounts are in addition to National Education Association (NEA) and local association dues.

So, the main point I gathered was: Taxes are too dang high.

But....

What a load of horse dung those numbers are. He should move here to AR, a masters in Conway will bring you $52k +, and it is a right to work state.

Even with the union numbers, they’re still overpaid.

You keep your nose clean, you work hard and do a decent job, and you’ll make more money as you gain experience and (hopefully) wisdom......are teachers immune to this rule as they are to paying for their own health care and pensions? A 2nd year teacher is still a puppy, Masters or no.

When was the last time that you met a union leader who was not a liar?

Maybe they shouldnt be paying union dues.

I started as a bachelors at 28K a year and bought a house and supported a stay at home wife and a daughter in a new house that I paid for.

It’s called a budget.

“They can retire when they are 55 and have subsidized post-retirement health care benefits and have a defined-benefit pension that grows by 3 percent every year,” Van Beek said

I don't know about the accuracy of that statement either since I know a gal who retired at the age of 48 and a guy who retired at 50........the gal was from the Waterford school district and the guy from the Detroit school system.

Oh bull-f'ing-shit....

I bet this is some "teachers aide" getting a sweet paid intern gig.

Look, personally, I think good teachers should be paid A LOT! But, the current system simply won't reward those teachers and places the shitbirds on equal terms with the stellar ones. Its the Union way.

I would love to see merit pay / bonus pay for good teachers; but they need to be judged individually based on performance against other peers and the "product" they are turning out; namely our next generation.

I truly loathe unions; they are parasitic.

It's easy to understand the education machine..telling the population..we need "masters prepared" teachers, therapists, nurses, etc.....It's about $$$$

An MS doesn't mean you are any better..or smarter. I've seen this over an over...first hand. It just means you've jumped thru the hoops...and have different letters behind your name.

I could place 12 letters behind my name...if I wanted to. Doesn't mean I know @#%#$!!

FWIW...folks thinking they want to be "teachers" ought to be researching what they can make. Of course that requires some thinking......................
