    I found this on facebook this morning:

    Teachers’ hefty salaries are driving up taxes, and they only work 9 or10 months a year! It’s time we put things in perspective and pay them for what they do – babysit!  We can get that for less than minimum wage.

    That’s right. Let’s give them $3.00 an hour and only the hours they worked; not any of that silly planning time, or any time they spend before or after school. That would be $19.50 a day (7:45 to 3:00 PM with 45 min. off for lunch and plan– that equals 6 1/2 hours).

    Each parent should pay $19.50 a day for these teachers to baby-sit their children. Now how many students do they teach in a day…maybe 30? So that’s $19.50 x 30 = $585.00 a day.  However, remember they only work 180 days a year!!! I am not going to pay them for any vacations.

    LET’S SEE….That’s $585 X 180= $105,300 per year. (Hold on! My calculator needs new batteries).

    What about those special education teachers and the ones with Master’s degrees? Well, we could pay them minimum wage ($7.75), and just to be fair, round it off to $8.00 an hour. That would be $8 X 6 1/2 hours X 30 children X 180 days = $280,800 per year.

    Wait a minute — there’s something wrong here! There sure is!  The average teacher’s salary (nation-wide) is $50,000. $50,000/180 days= $277.77/per day/30 students=$9.25/6.5 hours = $1.42 per hour per student–a very inexpensive baby-sitter and they even EDUCATE your kids!) WHAT A DEAL!!!!

    Make a teacher smile, give a shit about us.

    Walker’s rhetoric about the Democratic senators returning to Wisconsin to see democracy in action is laughable considering his whole stance on this is “there’s no discussion.”  Democracy, fuck yeah.
     
    Here are some more sights:

    Doctors from the UW were out helping teachers whose districts were requiring them to provide a doctor’s note.  Sure, it may be fraud but it’s fraud for a cause.

    Good question.  I want to see the military taking over schools.  At that point is when I will resort to some of my illegal books.





    Oh it’s true…Walker doesn’t have any college degree and he is trying to tell teachers how to conduct themselves.  100% of teachers in Wisconsin have more education that Scott Walker.


    MEMES!  I love the new Scumbag Scott ones.




    See, it’s not just a democrat and republican argument.



     







    Madison did give us The Onion.

    VIOLA…FUCK YEAH!

    Come on, history students…tell me the significance of this one.

    Oh shit…the internet is here.
     
    Haunting


    How is that Tea party doing?

    Yes!  We bring in Aaron Rodgers.  Whatever side he picks must be the correct way.

    OF COURSE…IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!
