my friend was asking her friends to call our governors office (Charly crist) and opposed the veto of bill 7189 who will be devasting for our florida teachers and this guy posted his comments as follows:

"They should pass a bill with no raises for a few years. Save some money. Lol! Paying them more will not improve their educations either. No evidence.

Tell me, in Florida do they get all those cushy pensions and summer vacations too? Do they also get paid to sit in rubber rooms to do nothing because their unions protect them? Here in NYC, people get paid over $100k a year to do nothing. You think this is right? Tell us why?"

Teachers should be paid based on experience and merit. That should make the difference when they hire you; and the year that they better themselves their salaries should be increased because you're giving them the benefit of the doubt. But after those docked increases, they ... See Moreneed to see some results otherwise why should they keep getting raises??? It works this way in the private sector. Why resist what's fair? Grades shouldn't be the sole reason, but should be a factor.
