Participant[quote=CDMA ENG]What other circulms are there were the teachers are trying to fail you (ever scored 14 out of 100 on exam and still got a B)?
CE[/quote]Sure. I nearly had a heart attack that I got an 21(out of 100) on an ochem midterm, till I learned that the mean was 7, and only after he threw out all the tests that were turned in blank.

ParticipantDepends on how much you need it. Are you dumping the 401k, the kids college fund, and selling grandmas wedding ring to raise the 140k? If so, keep the 40k. Something will come up and you need some padding for the fall.
If you are sitting on 200k plus, pony up the money and save yourself some cash in the long run.DWCAP

ParticipantThis conversation cracks me up. Can anyone tell me a well paying job that has no stress? I mean seriously, I want to know 1 well paying job, that has actual academic requirments (Ie post HS), benifits, and large amounts of personal self fufillment that doesnt have any stress or repeated frustrating moments? Just one job catagory. Cause if you can find one, I will apply tomorrow.
I had great teachers who were awsome. I had shitty teachers who were HORRIBLE. For some reason the people who seem to always be defending teachers always are refering to the first group, and in the process protecting and enabling the second. For some reason the people who are always attacking the teaching profession compensation (I am including the bennies, how many engineers get a tax payer backed pension for life???) seem to focus only on the second group and forget about the first, forgetting the first groups increadable contributions.
The simple fact is that good teachers who inspire the best in students are worth the money. The problem is that we refuse to admit that not all teachers are good, nor worth the money. And as long as the unions and their defenders maintain the status quoe, we cant seperate the good from the bad.
Are shitty engineers who dont do shit and corrupt the program with their indifference and ineptitude diserving of 60-90k a year just cause their job is generally stressful and the person in the office next door is great at their job?
If no, why are teachers worth it?DWCAP

ParticipantWhere do you think the Federal Reserve is getting the trillions it is spending to buy up crappy loans and Treasuries? Do you think it was just sitting on ~$1.2trillion, doing nothing with it? No, it printed it. Well, it decided that its accounts, (electronic) had an extra trillion or two, then spent it. Seeing as it controls the supply of money, it can do that. That money went to things like government bonds, which then was spent on REALLY expensive stimulus jobs or ‘infrastructure’ spending, and worked its way into the economy. Eventually it will have to be pulled out, or risk really high inflation, but that is a story for another day/year. RIght now it gives us a nice sugar high.
