@StillIRise1963 been missing you! “Deeply Divided” is Fascist propaganda pumping for “Deeply Divided”. As dismal as it all looks from racism to identity to safety—most of US have a realization other than “Deeply Divided”. I hold that belief 100%.
My sister's friend in FL wants to move to a state where she will be compensated fairly for teaching. She can't because of her home. It can't be insured.
@StillIRise1963 exactly what DeSantis set up with the insurance companies and restrictions. Being held hostage by the Dictator who believes in slavery.
While true, it’s also true that Southern teachers aren’t paid enough and Florida teachers are paid a little not to teach.
@StillIRise1963 WTF is that teachers are underpaid wile urged to attain higher degrees. Local teachers in TN provide students with the materials they need in class. And they aren’t reimbursed.
@StillIRise1963 my friend volunteers to teach art in our small elementary school. She supplies ALL of the materials, her time, etc. and has been restricted in what she can do. Teachers are always underpaid, understated, and undermined.
@dancingtreefrog@StillIRise1963@n69n teaching isn’t just a profession,it’s a “calling” from the heart. Yes, ppl can get the education but that doesn’t give them the “calling” from the heart. That’s why people choose teaching. I get this. And I know you can too.
@cobalt@dancingtreefrog@StillIRise1963@n69n I hesitate to say this but it’s the only way I can see teachers paid what they are worth with the benefits and funding they deserve: teachers should unionize. Our government has neglected public schools and teachers for too long. Biden’s right about Unions this time.
We have an Extreme Court NOT a Supreme Court. This dumb far right centered grifting self serving court just ruled on a fake case brought to them from Lorie Smith’s dream world with no realities and okayed her defaming an innocent married man who never knew her. Now THAT’S Extreme. And far Right.
Republicans want to block anyone from getting abortions even when one is needed for their health.
Democrats want you to be able to control your body entirely until the point of viability and then to be able to get an abortion when your life is in danger and when doctors knows there’s a serious issue.
That’s the bottom line. One of these two things saves lives and it isn't the Republican position.
It seems that the only group who want more restrictions on abortion are conservative Christian men. A group that still holds inordinate political power, wants to retain that power, has no concern for women's health & wants to force women back into the home.https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/dobbs-abortion-opinion-liability-republicans/
