The previous calculation wasn't $30k/year, but $30k over 20 years, or $1.5k/year. That's a lot less significant.
The point they were trying to make is that these are structural issues that are not going to be solved with a bit of extra cash that's currently going to Ukraine and that a more significant and structural improvements need to be made. In short: I think you actually agree with the previous poster, at least in broad lines.
- freeone3000 3y ago$1500 a year would also be literally lifechanging for so many people. An extra month’s pay would do so much.
- arp242 3y agoThe average teacher salary is $60k according to a quick search, although I'm sure this varies by region. After taxes $1,500 is not insignificant, but also not that much. You are missing the point as well: it's about structural issues that are not going to be solved with some relatively small extra bonus.
- wernercd 3y agothat much cash would be lifechanging... as it would add to the rampant inflation already in flight. It would change the lives of everyone by making things worse. Thanks for the offer but how about instead of making the problem worse for everyone in your attempt to help those poor poor teachers... maybe we look at stuff like less "help" from the government that's making everything more expensive and worse at every level? Worst words you'll hear: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.
