I don't stalk your posts - if it happens to be in a thread I am reading - then I might read your stuff. I guess what i am trying to say, is that because of your posting history and your avoidance history. I don't believe you have. You avoid answering almost every question and are a vague as you can possibly be taking no actual position on most topics.

You are totally unconvincing as a debater. We ALL need to pay our way. Especially those who benefited most from Bush's absurdly unwise tax cuts. And now we are down to the meat and potatos of it. What percentage are you willing to pay for that to be your fair share. I never really supported the Bush tax cuts, by the way, and I will freely admit that anyone making more than me needs to pay more. The question is: What is a "Fair Share"? I think anyone making over 85K/yr should pay upwards of 50% of their income. Slide that scale down gradually to the poverty level which would obviously pay nothing. Is that a fair share? I think so.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope it pays for shit and is a complete waste of an education. Teachers deserve a much better living wage ... Trey need to get merit pay for those who do an exceptional job... and those who do not perform... get rid of them and sack the damn administrators who do little to educate. To live in an educated society there need to be two components, educators who strive for excellence and parents need to be involved to make very sure that the next generation is not a member of the Dumb as Dirt and Proud of IT mentality that is taking over in a larger Idiocracy. That type of mentality will not give us a secure society that is able to compete in a 21st century world.
