I was watching the news here in Vegas. And they were talking about the state govt. here wanting to cut teachers jobs to save money. All hell is being raised about it.
And they ran the numbers: The classrooms would now have THREE extra students in them. And statewide they said it would be a savings of 70 million dollars!
Meanwhile representatives of the teachers union were raising hell all over the news and pontificating about how we were hurting the children, etc.
Seems to me that adding 3 extra students on average to every classroom is only gonna hurt all the extra un-needed teachers. And save 70 million dollars.
