"The only heartwarming story I want to read is the heartwarming story of a state legislature that declares that it will make sure every single public school is fully funded. Or the heartwarming story of a school district that declares it's going to raise teacher pay a huge amount, because teachers deserve it" We need to lobby legislators in a similar way that the teachers did who went on strike for better wages. Criminal what states spend relative to where the priority for teachers' pay resides.gary gruberhttp://www.garygruber.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6534665086749553287.post-78402792293851577282018-08-24T08:34:58.611-04:002018-08-24T08:34:58.611-04:00Yes!!!

But I think it's important to remind ourselves, the ONLY time governments or districts "decide" to fund education or pay teachers a living wage is when educators stand up and demand it. I think the heart-warming-est story of all is the educators who have stuck, will strike, may strike in the future. That's how we make this system work.KatieOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01072560661013528732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6534665086749553287.post-73600488869393886982018-08-24T07:15:02.019-04:002018-08-24T07:15:02.019-04:00Perfectly put.

Yes, it's great that other people are willing to help out sick people, but healthcare should not be funded by charity. We have to get back to the idea of there being a common good and be willing to fund it. lbwolperthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09789084098827243880noreply@blogger.com
