I saw that but assumed he opposed based on the other many parts. It is a faulty system, underfunded, and with myopic projections. My guess he wants to raise taxes. I would like to see the math on what increases it would take to make it healthy.

You realize that public school salarys are public record...makes it tough to bullshit about teacher pay. Here is the schedule for JCPS...I don't see many $2K bumps. For JCPS it requires a minimum of Rank 1 (you probably don't know what that means) to achieve $80K after 17 years of service. The linked salary schedule pretty well proves you're ignorant on this subject. From year 17 - 19 there is $0 bump... then year 20 - 24 again $0 bump.
I don't agree that it is 9 months a year. Teachers have required duties that reach beyond the regular school calendar.
School districts paying "out the ass" for summer work??? Again dude...better get some facts which are all public record to back up your claim.
I never called any teachers "garbage". But yes, some school systems are just about forced to keep teachers they would probably like to replace. It's hard to replace a teacher when you cannot get another candidate to take the job. My daughter's first job teaching she started the year with 32 students even though the state mandated maximum class size was 24. There were 5 open teaching positions in the school that they couldn't fill. She eventually left that school taking a $6K pay cut to go to another school district. That district is much pickier with the teachers it keeps because it can be.
Stopped listening when he equated broken home school shooters being due in part to the abortion industry.
What a doo doo head.

If I remember correctly, some security people were saying we should start doing this after the San Bernardino attack. I think the wife had some social media posts that would have clearly flagged her as a security risk when she tried to enter the country.
So we got fuzzites teaching kids how to be a welching liberal douche who no one likes.
And platinum/dinosaur/bwls2 teaching them about president j Edgar Hoover and SCJ scalise.
And we wonder why they're shooting up schools and suicide rates have gone way up?

Oh sorry, I clicked the link and got to a DNC propaganda page.
Missed any facts. Please repost the correct link if you have it.
This partially explains KY's relatively low % voter turnouts. Need more bodies exhumed.
Of the counties, they are not employees. School systems are not part of county government. School boards are elected separately from the county commissioners & run the school systems.
You notice how Republicans are all for the working man so long as it's not teachers, union workers, postal workers, any government employee, restaurant workers, and on and on it goes.
They applaud the corporate welfare and huge tax breaks they get that rob from those working people they deride for standing up for their rights. It's probably because the Repubs consist of the rich and the wannabe rich. They love carrying the water for the fat cats and doing their bidding. Hoping to get a morsel like the pennies they got from the latest tax cuts that will bankrupt the country like they have done to Kansas.

And that's Obama's fault? You mean the same Republicans who held up Obama judicial nominees for no reason? Refused to do their elected duty and vote on Obama's centrist Supreme Court nominee? Nope. Of course Trump is so stupid he thinks Obama didn't fill those judgeships on purpose. We have a literal retard sitting in the WH right now. Thinks he's in a sitcom or something.
This is ignorant. A) Are you claiming union workers aren't teachers/postal/etc. B) Being for freedom from unions is FOR WORKERS.
Next.
And I stand by summer office wages - straight from a teacher.
I'd like to hear the 12 month required duties.
Also, Rank 1 doesn't come with a PHD requirement like you previously stated mr. Facts.
So - my first post. HS teacher (non PHD) made 80k. Fact
Teacher friends started at 36-38K and got immediate 2k increases. Fact (now starting pay for rank 3 is $42,700! - could it be that they increased them bc their new pay schedule increased starters and had to get them caught up...possible Mr. Fuzz, doesn't make my statement fiction)
Teachers work 9 months - you agreed, some do.
Yes, the US is the only country in the world where less guns does not mean less gun violence. Everywhere else this is true.
Outlawing murder hasn't stopped murder so why have that law? This is the argument by conservatives when it comes to gun laws.

That is what must happen across the board, but if/when this is tried you'll be labeled a racist, homophobic, anti-immigration, anti-poor, anti-kids, anti-old people at worst and "giving benefits to the top 1%" at best.
This country is doomed.
Obama got +300 judges including 2 to the Supreme Ct. That is a little more than Bush. Garland's confirmation would have pushed the court to the left since he was replacing Scalia. Garland was only a "centrist" in comparison to Obama's two far left nominees. McConnell didn't take the bait and the dems assumed Hillary would get to pick someone even further left. Then Trump happened.

Also, maybe some teachers work until 6-7pm but I believe that to be the exception, not the rule. I have a ton of school teachers in my family and most are home by 4 pm and work sparingly in the evenings. Plus they have a planning period. And don't do anything in the summer other than 2-3 in-service days. I see teachers leaving the gym every day at 5:30 when most of us are just getting there.
teachers are great, necessary, saints, etc but spare me this underpaid, overworked, BS.

Can easily cut the administrative bloat that is draining all the financial resources from actual teachers.
I have no idea how noone brought them up in the proposed solution
Honestly, do you know you're a fuggin idiot or is it just like ignorance is bliss.

Louisville teachers and students will have to make up a day of school thanks to the teachers temper tantrum protest (refusing to show up for work).

JFC, I know this is too complicated for you but people tend to take interest in issues whose fixes being sold by Dems is higher taxes. Feel free to pay extra taxes, they allow that.
Let teachers teach/work 12 months out of the year & retire when they're 65 like those of us in the private sector & see how they like it then... For the number of hours a teacher works in Kentucky. They make on average $47.00 an hour & get to retire when they are in their 40's. Is there any wonder why the pension fund is busted.
Not really. Today is just a shot across the bow with only 20 districts closed in a wildcat maneuver.
If you don’t want to stay home with your snotty brats, better line up a sitter now for April 9th. Look for all 120 to be closed after everyone comes back from spring break.
I actually don't have facebook. Or children.
But I would contribute to a go fund me page for substitute teachers just because I'm sick of these whiny brat teachers acting like children.

There it is - the mindset that teachers are doing everyone a favor.
Actually, teachers are doing a job. They get paid and everything.
Good for you. You should have plenty of time since you only work 3.5 months a year.
Which is it going to be? They just keep your kids for you or they have a job and they took a day off without pay which they will have to make up?
Unfortunately April 9 falls in a portion of the 4.5 months of the year I actually work.
I honestly have no idea what you are even talking about...?
I think you were the one who inferred that teachers just babysit everyone’s snotty nosed kids...maybe that’s an insecurity or something.
Can teachers be fired for saying they are sick when they are not? I can at my job.
