[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So parents, before you go bashing your child's teacher for whatever reason, you need to realize that your tax dollars of basically paying for many new teachers to qualify for subsidized housing. They have college degrees but they cannot afford to live in your county unless they are propped up by subsidies. [/quote]

Yes!!! I started teaching in mcps over 20 years ago and was making 35k! It took a long time, and a lot of extra education, to move up the pay scale! [/quote]

It's funny I saw the David Blair ad on TV about building affordable housing for teachers.[b] I kept thinking why not just pay them a fair wage.[/b][/quote]

That would be expensive and there are no developer kickbacks doing that. This way developers get a huge payday funded by the taxpayer. That's the actual point.[/quote]

His ad said 30K new affordable houses needed to be built for teachers and first responders, and of course, this is about kickbacks. The developers get a lucrative contract to build thousands of new houses at a tidy profit all at the taxpayer's expense. A simpler way to address this is to pay all teachers and first responders a fair wage.[/quote]
