Where The Money Scott Walker Is Cutting From Universities Is Going

[JimH52]

He is the pick of the Koch Brothers to be anointed GOP nominee. We should overlook his shortcomings. And I will, if one of brothers sends me a large check.

 

[Unkotare]

Sounds like Walker is doing the right thing.

I'm not sure if you're trying to make a joke, or you're being serious. How the hell is cutting education for a new stadium the right thing to do?

Well, if you want to call being brainwashed by socialist "teachers" (who have no idea what it's like to live in the real world) education, then yes, it's the right thing to do. Makes me want to vote for him even more. Go Scott!

Poorly paid teachers know more about the real world than pandering and pampered politicians do .

Only the poorly paid ones?

Walmart raised the wage to a laughable amount, at a funny time to, when wage protests are heating up, when stories about walmart employees and there reliance on welfare are coming out... Are you seriously supporting walmart?

So, the minimum wage is the only reason people survive - but 24% above the minimum wage is a laughable amount?

You seem to talk out of both sides of your mouth, in your quest to return to feudalism.

The minimum wage is barely livable, let alone if someone has kids. That's why we have welfare, food stamps, loans, etc, etc... It is a laughable amount, look at productivity,what wages should be, the cost of living... Capitalists want to return to feudalism by removing regulations.

What in the holy fuck is someone with kids doing working at minimum wage? For that matter, what in the holy fuck is someone making minimum wage doing having children? And why is that anyone else's problem but theirs?

Walmart doesn't exist for the purpose of taking care of people, Bubba. They exist to make a profit and remain in business. The fact that their doing so provides their employees with paychecks is a by-product, not the main goal.

We have welfare and food stamps because dumb twats like you have convinced people to slack off and look for someone else to make up the difference.

If you knew jack shit about capitalism OR feudalism beyond slogans, you'd know that capitalism has no desire to return to feudalism, because feudalism is a piss-poor system, and antithetical to true capitalism.

The reason I know this is because I paid for my own college education, instead of having it handed to me by self-righteous dumbasses who assumed I was too pathetic to take care of myself.

What years did you pay for your own college education?

I'm letting you know.

 

[williepete]

What I do for a living?

I don't care. I'm curious why any sentient being would still push a failed and failed again collectivist agenda. 100 million dead aren't enough?

Are you a student who has no experience with the real world or knowledge of history?

Are you a college professor who has no experience with the real world or knowledge of history?

Are you a trust fund baby who has no experience with the real world or knowledge of history?

Or are you a witty troll who has experience with the real world and knowledge of history?

This is from 2 years ago. Not too shabby for a loser who couldn't make it in the real world.

All of them.

Yes, I know you're probably asking when I attended college, but no, it's none of your frigging business. Go watch reality TV if you want to indulge your Nosy Neighbor Syndrome.

When I see any of you people work a fraction as hard as I've seen the wealthy, I might consider what you say to be worth my time.

Oh jesus christ, do you know who the walton family is? The CEO of nestle? The owners of sweatshops? Fuck, all of the work is done by laborers, actual people, and the CEO's reap the profits off of the laborers, while doing very little for what they earn.

So? Sucks to be them, they can start their own company and be their own CEO.

This is the mentality that scares me, can you imagine? Stupid slaves, they should stop bitching and start their own plantation.

Slaves? Do you even shop in Walmart? Nary a whip to be seen, and the only chains on people's necks are jewelry.

I always love that line about "all the work is done by laborers". Spoken like someone who's never had the education to be more than an unskilled menial, and has no idea whatsoever what managers do . . . other than firing him.

I'm also laughing over "actual people". What are CEOs? Androids?

How the products in walmart are made sweetie.
Mining industry of the Democratic Republic of the Congo - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Managers do labor. So do CEO'S. Doesn't mean CEO'S aren't exploiting the value produced.

You are a clueless moron when it comes to what CEO's do and the hours they work, its embarrassing how stupid you look in fact. Reminds me of your OP on the Milwaukee stadium you were epically stupid in that thread also.

"unions have destroyed" is the rhetoric for we want to keep you down. Otherwise you might ask for better pay and working conditions. Can't have that. Starting out at $10 per hour for some lame jerk of a boss or company is no way whatsoever to rise through the ranks. Would have never thought of something that anti self. A degree in a needed field is the ticket. Math/science degree people always always work their butts off. $10 is something I give very little effort for.

Funny, because it's actually the Unions that do that. When you have a Union contract, you can't ask for a raise. Instead, everyone earns exactly the same (other than seniority).

And my experience is that people with your attitude rarely make it anywhere. Are there exceptions? Sure. But often people who have the attitude "this is only a $10/hr job, so I'm not going to work hard", often tend to carry that attitude forward. "This is only a $15/hr job, so I'm not going to work hard". "this is only $18/hr", "this is only $22/hr". At what point does the magic moment arrive when it is worth it to work hard?

And moreover, a single person that puts in 100% effort without a degree, is worth 5 degreed half-butts that barely put in any effort.

My experience is, people who say things like "This doesn't matter, so I'll do the minimal" often never do their best on anything.

Was that a joke? My parents have a net worth over a million dollars. They were both public school teachers.

Can you name some other job that has:

Three months paid vacation a year
Has a minimum pay start of $40K (people with degrees in engineering have a lower starting salary)
Automatic raises up to $90K a year (I don't think I have ever seen anything like that in the private sector)
Regardless of your ability to teach (never happens)
You work only 7 hours a day plus lunch and of course those super stressful 'silent reading time' periods.
From what I've read, most public school teachers only teach 5 classes a day. Only 5 of those 7 hours, are spent teaching.
Has a special state backed retirement system exclusively for teachers.
Has a week off for "spring break".
Has a week off for Christmas and New Years.

Schools have far more days off than the private sector.

And you want to claim they are under-paid and over worked? Compared to what exactly?

They have a whole lot of long days. I know a lot of teachers who are grading or preparing for the next day late into the night. And it is hard to think of a more important job.

A lot of people work late into the night. They chose the job so that doesn't make them SPECIAL

I can think of dozens of more important jobs. Without farming, all the education in the world won't keep people fed. That's just one example.

People can teach themselves, if they choose to. People used to teach their kids the basics before they ever got to school. My sister had her kids reading at a 4th grade level, before they ever got to 1st grade.

You are clearly out of your mind. Teaching may be the most important job in the world. Education does play an important role in farming. Think we could produce so much food without it? You'd be a fool to think that.

Fact: Education is important.
Other Fact: Organized education is probably not the most important thing. After all, we survived a long time without it.
Yet Another Fact: American society doesn't really think education is all that important.
