I have in front of me:
"POSSIBLE GENERAL FUND REDUCTIONS"

Stuff they're "considering"
-Eliminate substitute teachers -Eliminate background checks -Eliminate Hepatitis B for staff -No extended contracts -Eliminate retiree health insurance -Eliminate all health insurance -Require smoking staff to pay monthly surcharges -Eliminate lunch supervision -Eliminate computer lab supervisors -Reduce art program -Reduce vocal music program -Eliminate orchestra -Eliminate instrumental music program -Eliminate non-athletic extra-curricular programs -Eliminate all athletic programs -Reduce phys ed programs -Reduce librarians, nurses, aides -Reduce family/consumer science (home ec) -Reduce business -Reduce industrial tech (shop) -Reduce foreign language -Shut down school tv channel -Eliminate journalism -Eliminate para health insurance -1% salary redux all staff -4 day school week -Eliminate multiple "testing programs" -Eliminate administrative cell phone allowance -Eliminate all printed publications -Eliminate instructional Coordinators -Increase class size -Freeze hiring

A bright and wonderful future brought to you by NOT TEACHING OUR CHILDREN ANYTHING AND INSTEAD BUYING MORE GUNS. Also, SPENDING MONEY WE DIDN'T HAVE.

I'm not shitting you, either. It's the real deal. There's more on there I don't understand because I'm not in the biz, but teachers are definitely not being bitchy.

What are they fighting for? Your economy is dead theres no resuscitating that trainwreck. The power structure has become a mockery of a government.

In Wisconsin, teaching salaries averaged $52,644 in 2009-10, and principals $80,000-90,000 http://www.teacher-world.com/teacher-salary/wisconsin.html
Factor in this is without benefits, including healthcare with no copay, and three months off of work a year.
Median Wisconsin household income is $49,994 http://www.ers.usda.gov/data/unemployment/RDList2.asp?ST=WI
So, while I don't think that teaching is something that shouldn't be well compensated, these individuals are living quite comfortably for the amount of money they are pulling for their region.
Think they'd be willing to take a minor paycut or have to allocate some of their earnings towards their healthcare/retirement in order to save loot to ensure the minds of tomorrow?

All those who are living off the government tit are about to get a huge wake up call. That includes public employees as well as illegal immegrants and the lower socio economic groupls who are collectin welfare. That long list I saw looks like a good begining to financial freedom with out the government picking more of our money to be mismanaged. myc
