Utah’s state income tax funds schools as well

This is going to get ugly, especially in blue states who already had shortages.

Really bad.

Darn blue states.

You must have done a lot of research in this area. It's like you have an

Red states are more reliant on sales taxes, in general. Those will fall hard.

California is facing massive pension shortfalls as they struggle to pay retired

Yeah, it's going to get ugly. They won't be alone, either.

How much are they slashing UDOTs budget?

wasn't there a fairly large rainy day fund at one point?

800 million from what I understand. The state budget is 20 billion

Can Utah cut anymore from Public Ed? Nothing left to cut. They run lean

Have you seen Corner Canyon High School?

That is from a bond the citizens approved to build the school not state budgets.

cut the administrators in half

Half seems a bit much, but yes, make the wages more realistic.

Benfica1

5/22/20 11:04am

I was thinking more like cut their jobs out completely at half. Then hire more

jwf

5/22/20 11:14am

Which jobs would you cut?

O Gaucho

5/22/20 11:16am

PLC coaches

Charles Darwin

Those usually aren't admin. Coaches will typically receive a teacher's salary.

It would obviously trim expenses. I don't think you are considering the other

I’m a teacher, and I do a lot these too, but I get paid significantly less

Not going to get an argument from me that teachers are compensated fairly.
