Jeez, NYC teachers already make over $70k a year.

What is killing us in New Jersey are the teacher salaries, but more importantly the retired teacher pensions (along with other NJ state workers, but teachers take the biggest chunk).

Gov Corzine knows this, but he failed to do anything because the lobby is his bread and butter, and when you do cross them they spend zillions to try and hurt you. That is what California public employees union did to Arnold.

We have a NJ radio station (FM dial) that constantly tries to expose the corruption. They have had on lots of experts talking about the problem.

The only real solution is to burn down the entire state jobs and pension system. I mean a complete, utter, 100% destruction, and start over.

The problem with that is corrupt Democrat appointed judges won't let you do that, even if Republicans controlled the governorships, state houses, and state senates.

I guess the only solution is for the states to go completely bankrupt with no "bailouts" and let the states go into chaos for awhile.

I am totally serious.

And Taxes will have to be raised more if Obama gets his way and has year round plus longer school days. After all, teachers will have to be paid for for more hours worked
