The average cost per student K-12 in the U.S.A. is about $10,000 per year.
I propose we take $9,000 per student and give it to their parents in the form of a voucher. You realize I just saved 10% of the total education budget?
You allow acredited teachers to each have (20) students. You realize I just shrunk the class size so each student receives more attention?
Simple math... that is $180,000 per teacher.
Teacher keeps $100,000 in salary. This is maximum. You realize I just gave teacher an amazingly huge raise?
The teacher takes the other $80,000 per year to pay for:
- Books (re-useable)
- Mortgage on the building (they pool with 4-5 other teachers and now save the commerical real estate market and gain a significant retirement asset)
- Furniture, Whiteboards, Projectors, Computers (all re-useable for years)
- Other supplies
- $15K pooled with the 4-5 other teachers for an administrator - that is a job for $60-70K a year for a real professional
Benefits
- I have just given teachers massive raises and excellent retirement
- I have just empowered the parents to choose the teachers
- I have just opened the teacher talent pool to more people and better people
- I have just offered students smaller class sizes
- I have just taken the corruption (unions and Democratic Party) our of education.
Why won't it happen? Only because of benefit #5
The Democratic Party and Union Bosses have too much money in their coffers to ever allow students, parents, and teachers have such an amazing program.
There is nothing to misunderstand. Judge Vinson's ruling was crystal clear: ObamaCare is VOID and implementation must cease immediately.
