He wasn't exaggerating either.

I live in one of the districts on the chart. Real estate taxes to support these gonefs are outrageous. Nice to know the fruit of one’s labor finances luxurious lifestyles of these unscrupulous bastards who in turn are in charge of childrens’ education.
I saw some Rep Congressman on TV saying in his hometown, where average home prices are about 75K, the Supt of Education got 400K and 300K a year in pension.

Many on this site bitch to high heaven about teachers and their pensions. It’s BS like these 300K pensions that destroy the reality. I’ve been paying 10% of my salary for 30 years. My pension after this year will be 40K. I’m excited, I’ve earned it, this is the reality. It’s a good pension, but you have to put in 30 years, it’s not transferable, leave the profession and you are disqualified. It doesn’t roll into a 401K. How many people out there can put up with babysitting tomorrow’s “leaders” for 30 years.
