and we wonder why we are broke these kind of situations make you want to vomit..
How does MD compare?
Wicomico County teacher starts out at 42,140.....Keep in mind... They also have 4 years of college debt, and have a few years to earn a masters degree
NO ONE on any state welfare system should be 'entitled' to this kind of money. They are also teaching the children this is the way to live, why work?
A very sad commentary for this country.
