» 700 NYC teachers are paid to do nothing.
I know how overworked, underpaid, under-appreciated and under-equipped public school teachers are. They deserve more than your respect, they deserve a thanks and a round of drinks. But this kind of thing really, really pisses me off. If we moved away from bullshit union tenure and paid teachers based on merit, then we could fire these clowns and pay real teachers what they’re worth.
