re: Give teachers a raise....Nah.

A knee jerk reaction would be to support the capitalist system and go all private. I have to send my kids to private school because of the problems at the local public school. But if they did that, it would mean vouchers and then the problem kids end up at the private schools and or the good private schools need to price out the vouchers some how. That would increase the cost of private schools and I know property taxes aren’t going down. So in the end, I’m fine with the system we have in place as the most economical for my situation. Is it good for society as a whole, no. But no one is going to address the real problems so this is the best we can do for now.
