Whats the big deal with teacher layoffs? People are losing jobs all over the place so why should it be any different at schools?

UH I don’t know Frank… Maybe because it involves kids and children are our future. UH maybe because everywhere isn’t losing jobs(look at the latest unemployment report released by the ESC). Also, if those in higher up positions in the school system who do less and get paid more took pay cuts. Layoffs would be largely unnecessary.

I have heard that lame argument over and over “that its for the kids”. Kids represent the long term future. Current workers represent the medium range future and short term future. I would argue that everyone is equally important so cut out the silly kid crap.
I agree that the bloated government should be trimmed in all places. I would argue that we should remove 99% of the school higher ups before we start firing a single teacher. I think the paper pushers do more harm than good.
