Well, it’s not like he can take credit together with Biden.
Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Conservatives have been society’s liars throughout all of human civilization. Nothing good in the history of mankind has ever come from conservatism. Nothing at all.
The highest in the southeast
That’s such a low, low bar.
I dont have twitter, how do community notes work as apposed to regular comments?
$64K isn’t really much these days.
$64k is a great salary in my area of PA. I’m not familiar with GA but I imagine it’s the same. To put this into comparison, the average household income in GA is $75k and most households are two earners, so yeah, seems pretty good.
Just because something is average doesn’t mean it’s good.
If the average grade of a class is fifty… that doesn’t mean it’s a good grade. It just means a majority of the class is failing.
The average GPA is 2.75. At 50% I would guesstimate 90% of kids are failing school. Usually 70% is passing. Where did the 50% "fifty"come from?
I remember when teachers were complaining about making 24k a year in the last decade. (I’m just saying, not being contrarian)
“complaining” is a bad term. Being a teacher requires a bachelor’s degree and often extra schooling on top of that. It’s the equivalent of a professional with a degree and industry certifications. Where I live, a degree and certs is enough to get 70K straight out of school and easily over 100k after a few years of experience. There’s absolutely no reason that teaching shouldn’t pay any less than what someone with similar education would be able to get in industry.
I mean it’s definitely nice but after pensions and taxes and everything else it’s probably like an extra $400 a month. Not exactly world shattering but definitely nice.
There are a shit ton of people in this country living on so little that an extra $400 per month would be huge for them.
There’s a percentage of those who would consider an extra $400 per month life changing money. If you were making minimum wage this would be the equivalent of working an extra 25 hours per week. Math is pre-tax.
You make less than 64K/year as a tenured professor in NJ? The average tenured-professor salary in New Jersey is $105,880 as of September 01, 2024.
I’m guessing some of this is on you and your choices somehow.
Yeah, not news to me. That’s just the breaks, man. Can’t all work as grantwriters at an R1 or in a med school.
Bro. I saw the light and left academia shortly after my phd. I make a very good living doing other shit, mainly managing money and people. I do better than most tenured profs. So can you.
Republicans did cut the bill’s funding in half, in addition to allocating much of it to other causes.
President Biden deserves way more credit for getting what he’s done this term despite the GOP’s best efforts to hamstring it in every possible way.
That’s the reality of public school teacher pay all over the country.
The national average is under $70k
