I just did the math. Paying every teacher $150k would cost more than my entire local district gets in total funding every year.

That's a lot of new property taxes.



Did you deduct the current average pay and take into account federal and state funding which may even exceed local funding?


Or... maybe reduce our defense budget nationally. We have endless funds for wars and bailing out large corporations. We don't need to raise taxes to accomplish this.
