Washington teacher greed strikes again: Seattle teachers vote to go on strike over "respectful pay' (top salary=$142,000) and smaller classes (Class size averages 14.46 per class)

As every sentient being in the State of Washington knows, the McCleary budget was merely a scam to overpay underworked teachers who, based on OSPI report card statistics, were already overpaid as it was.

Now, proving once again there is no end to teacher greed, Seattle teachers have just voted to go on strike.

The demand to be paid MORE (so-called "respectful pay") for doing LESS (the usual smaller class room size scam.)

Here's the top salary schedule for Seattle:

Top salaries:

Bachelor’s: up to $122,271/year (~$58.78/hour) at Step 4

Master’s: up to $139,106/year (~$66.88/hour) at Step 5

PhD: up to $142,523/year (~$68.52/hour) at Step 6

That's not bad for a 183 day/7 hour per day work year

Here's the Seattle Student/Teacher ratio, according to OSPI:

Students: 50,948

Teachers: 3,523

Classroom Average Size (Students/Teachers): 14.46

It's illegal for teachers to strike in the State of Washington:

"Yes. Washington law does not grant teachers—or any public employees—a legal right to strike, making teacher strikes unlawful under RCW 41.56.120 and confirmed by the Attorney General’s 2006 opinion."

But since unions own the legislature and he courts like the 13th Amendment was never ratified, no striking teacher is held accountable for, effectively, pissing on the law of this state like an illegal alien crossing the border... something else leftists totally support.

Republican Senate passage of the McCleary budget scam caused property taxes to explode, but academic achievement has continued to fall year over year... which any blind idiot could tell would happen... just like THIS blind idiot (me) knew they would.

If *I* knew it, then how come legislative morons DIDN'T know it since the McCleary pay scam required NO improved teacher performance?

And as teachers in Seattle have just proven, there's no end to teacher greed even though the academic achievement they provide has been exceeded by, for example, Mississippi... at a paltry $6000 per student per year LESS.

Money isn't the issue. If it was, SPSD and most every school district would be punching out geniuses like movie tickets instead of functionally illiterate "graduates."
