But the teachers are not taking any pay cuts, they are simply taking time off. When they got big pay raises did they work longer hours? No. So why are they taking time off instead of a pay cut. 3 day weekends instead of a pay cut. The teachers invented furlough fridays so they could impact parents and students enough that everyone would say all right all ready raise my taxes give the teachers more pay. But then the HGEA and UPW will say the same thing so pretty soon no one takes any cuts except the tax payer.

The truth is ---- the earth is getting cooler, the ice sheet is growing and you probably drive your car everyday by yourself waiting for government to do something for you.

"October 2009
At the end of the Arctic summer, more ice cover remained this year than during the previous record-setting low years of 2007 and 2008. However, sea ice has not recovered to previous levels. September sea ice extent was the third lowest since the start of satellite records in 1979, and the past five years have seen the five lowest ice extents in the satellite record.
NSIDC Director and Senior Scientist Mark Serreze said,“It’s nice to see a little recovery over the past couple years, but there’s no reason to think that we’re headed back to conditions seen back in the 1970s. We still expect to see ice-free summers sometime in the next few decades.”..."
