Teacher, writer, mom and activist fighting Common Core with every ounce of my being! Opt Out Georgia, Common Core and the Brain, Georgians to Stop Common Core.
The top 15 hedge fund managers on Wall Street make more money in a single year than every kindergarten teacher in America combined — over 120,000 teachers.
To make it into the top 400 in the U.S, a person has to make an average of at least $110 million each year. A typical American making $40,000 would have to work for 2,750 years to make what the lowest-earning person in this group made in one. The income inequality is astounding.
This is the kind of abuse we see with all this test prep crap in Georgia. Reading on a screen reduces comprehension and then we shame the kids when failed programs like IReady are forced. This is disgusting and I hope parents will speak up!
If Democrats controlled the Senate:
- the cash payments would be $1200 not $600
- there would be $175 billion, not $25 billion, to help people pay the rent
- there would be flexible money for states and cities and bonus checks for frontline workers
Let’s win Georgia.
