“...for what they pay, which is nothing.”

It sure as hell isn’t nothing On Long Island, New York.
My cousin and her husband received high pay with great benefits, and the summers off when they were teachers.
When they retired, my cousin, a former elementary school teacher and her husband, a former high school teacher, started to receive a pension of $8.000 per month each.
That came out wrong. What I was trying to say is that the PARENTS pay nothing for the schools. Sure, they pay taxes to government entities...but they normally do not pay anything DIRECTLY to the schools - so the schools don’t answer to the parents, and why should they - the schools will answer to the people who write the checks to them, which are the POLITICIANS.
