Wow.

To clarify: I mean those Chicago teachers who are demanding more pay in exchange for a longer school day. And I meant what I said. Chicago schools have failed for too long, so this change is getting pushed. If the teachers were in the private sector, they’d have been fired long ago for their failures to get satisfactory results. So raises are appropriately out of the question. First the students show learning improvement, then they can ask for more money. I’d be willing to implement a merit pay system for that purpose, too.
