Fiscal conservatives & libertarian economics!

*Shakes head*

I really need to move some place better. Too bad the whole world is in this liberal shit can.

Uh Mim? Wasn't your original career choice that of a public school teacher? A role that is y'know, traditionally underfunded and liberals generally want to fund?

EDIT: Plus my whole first post was about how conservative economic theory just had a big hole blown in it.

30,000$ a year is a really low wage, mim. Plus I was under the impression that for many teachers the "two months off" thing wasn't necessarily an attractive perk. Sure you get that time off, but that's also time where you're not being paid.

I mean if you're happy with it, kudos to you, though.

Also what 3rd party groups are you referring to?

You get paid in the summer. Most hold salary back and divide it out equally through the year.

I'm not sure benefits packages are all that over-stuffed these days, mim. School board employees in my office must come in for annual physicals but have to pay for everything besides visit with cash out of pocket (blood, urine, EKG, etc). Medicare sucks less than Florida school board insurance.

I barely make 30k a year :/

Screw you HDS, it's above the poverty line (I think).

*Raises hand* I'm not a liberal. I'm a leftist. I actually kinda hate liberals. Just wanted to point that out.

Edit: Also - (and this shows the sickness and political illiteracy of American culture) you know who ARE Liberals? Republicans. And Libertarians. And Democrats.

But yeah, I tend to dislike Liberals in both the traditional and colloquial sense.

30K is not enough to raise a child. Not even close.

Because Desp has lot's of children and real-world experience... What with running away from his rich family, playing Indian for a while, and hiking a mountain.
