I'm not very familiar with the teacher issue, but it is my understanding that they may get pay cuts in the future? or they will no longer have union representation? either way, that's in the future.. it's not like they are getting fucked on pay for the work that was already done....

huge difference in my opinion...
That's the type of job I need... make hundreds of millions, totally screw my job up, lose a trillion of my own citizens wealth, suck hundreds of billions of tax payers money down the drain through bailouts, then after I'm done totally screwing it all up, failing at my job at every level, a few hundred million in bonus money and corporate perks on the tax payers dime should equal things out for me, just to make sure I can scrape along.
