THe only jobs are jobs with charter schools. They pay less than
$35,000 in most cases, and are for profit firms that can lay you
off at any time. Their insurance benefits are really bad. If you
are a retired teacher or retired from another job that pays
benefits and a good pension, the charter school system may be
the route for you to go.
80% the charter schools are owned or operated by Bush-Luving Fox-
watching pro-Bush Republican religious or political leaders who
think we do not need an educated middle class.
