Posted by Shaun176 on 4/22/25 at 9:53 am
They lost because of open borders and inflation. Most people ignore the culture wars stuff.

Oh yes, those head admins that are public schools in each parish are earning those $200-$400k salaries, while supported by massive armies of support staff in the parish, multiple VPs at each school, etc. And for all the success that those parishes demonstrate in basic education!
35 charter leaders made more than the superintendent of the highest performing district the state.

Now look at salaries over 200k. People are getting more to run 1 charter school than Superintendents with 50 schools. The Impact charter school lady was getting 211k and then allegedly mis managing money so bad that the state came in and replaced their entire management.
21/41 Salaries over 200k are in charter schools. About 15% of students in Louisiana attend charter schools.

As spending went up in Education, an explosion of these jobs occurred. Also, performance didn’t change a bit. Coincidence?
They took the best teachers and put them in these positions. The idea is they spread their best practices but instead they are forced to push whatever program the central office or state has bought.

re: Trump has to fix the dollar.

Part of the plan is to devalue the dollar to soften the effect of retaliatory tariffs on us goods and increase manufacturing in the US.

Posted by Shaun176 on 4/19/25 at 9:13 am
It really depends on who wins the next elections which depends on the tariff/dollar plan working quickly. If Dems sweep, they will tax their way out of it. If it is split there will a combo of taxes and cuts or raising the age. If maga wins, disability and death benefits for minors goes away. The plan radically changes.

Newer vehicles that have all the driver assist/ warning system are cheaper on liability than older ones that don't have that stuff. We were were shopping cars getting a model 2 years newer with the safety stuff was $250 per month cheaper on ins.

Nah. Maybe the representatives. Maybe.
Constitution has to be amended due to another split of the state funding pie. In order for that to happen it has to pass 2/3 legislature then amendment has to pass statewide and EBR.

Best case scenario, district officially forms July 1 , 2026. 2026-2027 will be a transition year to get everything in place and all the teachers hired. Summer programs 2027 will be when it starts with students. This was the process for the other community districts.
It will have 800 employees, so it will take the transition year to find them and get them processed. It takes about 3 weeks just to get the LSP background check done on each school employee. 1st a school board gets elected, then they hire a Superintendent, senior leadership positions, they then hire principals, principals then hire an entire school of teachers. Textbooks/technology times 13000 have to get ordered and delivered. Student data management system will have to get populated with student data. Lunch and buses will have to be decided on and up to speed. Even if they go private with these services, the providers will need months to get ready.

re: Do you consider Social Security benefits in your retirement calculus?
Posted by Shaun176 on 3/9/25 at 2:32 pm
Old people vote, so it will be there. They will probably reduce the amount you can take before full retirement and increase the retirement age for people born after 2000. They will probably also increase the max income for ss taxes at some point in the future or just fund it with debt and money printing.
re: Why doesn't social security fund get invested into higher earning fund?
Posted by Shaun176 on 3/9/25 at 2:02 pm
The 1st generation to get Social Security never paid in. The current workers have always paid the benefit of the retirees. SS is not an investment, it is a tax to pay pensions to old or disabled people. Because baby boomers are the largest generation, there is a shortage in workers to retirees. The other problem is that people who are disabled from birth or childhood get disability without ever paying SS taxes. Their support should come from welfare and not SS.
re: Cruise to Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao in April... what to do there?
Posted by Shaun176 on 3/8/25 at 2:04 pm
Bonaire: National Park, Donkey Sanctuary, kayak Tour in Mangroves. Karlendijk is small but has a market when the cruise ships come in. Weed is not legal. Best thing in Bonaire is diving/snorkeling. It has some of the best shore diving in the world.
