I learned today that Texas pays a little over $6000 per student to each school. With 30 students in each class, that is $180,000 per classroom. You would think half of that intake would be paid to the instructor. Ziprecruiter says the average wage for teacher pay is around $50k in Austin TX.
It’s always been that way. No money to pay for teachers, no money to pay for universal healthcare, no money to pay for public infrastructure projects…
But will happily burn 100s billions a year on the military and enforcement agencies.
The money is in keeping you down, not helping anyone up.
That may be true to an extent, but pay has stagnated more and more each year.
Adjusted for inflation, a teacher’s salary in 1969 was well over $77,000. Today is at $60,000, with purchasing power being substantially lower.
