Wrong
Keeper: you don't get it. The social system was already brain dead and breathing on life support before Campbell got to it.
As I've said, I voted for the man, and I voted for reform. I don't have a problem with most of the layoffs in the public sector. They are the direct result of a hemorrhaging economy and a need to get our public spending in order. We need to stop the bleeding. The jobs many of these people lost are no different than the job my wife lost in December due to the fact that her company hadn't hit their sales numbers.
I still stand by my statement that teachers need to get more respect. If I were to put a monetary value on teachers, I say start them at $50K. In exchange, bust the union and allow free competition in the workforce. Give management ultimate power in negotiating individual contracts. This way we have a better chance of keeping the best teachers, and encouraging students to enter the profession.
