Teachers who would qualify likely make $60-70K, with tenure and job security, so they are going to go for $100K to teach in the ghetto until this initutive runs out of money and they are laid off to save money? I doubt they will have many eager to accept this deal.

"They're willing to waive tenure and seniority rights," said Pawlenty.
"So we can hire who we want, fire who we want and assign them when we want and
how we want to assign them."


G-d Bless Gov. Pawlenty. Proposing this takes someone with a steel pair, as it's a
real shot-across-the-bow for teacher unions.

But, Pawlenty just might pull it off. He was (grudgingly) portrayed as a
talented governor even in the Los Angeles Times a month or so ago.
