Had a niece that was a school teacher and she made a 100k. She was a teacher and not an administrator, counselor or shrink. She didn't start making that. Max salary for a teacher is over 100K in NYC. http://www.schoolbook.org/2011/09/20/do-teachers-have-it-made-hardly-a-new-film-says

She must've done a lot of overtime because your base salary does not get to 100k until you have 22 years in the system.

And another thing, Bloomberg signed some shady contracts that explain how this guy's fortune quadrupled while he was in office. No one says anything about that. Yes, it's his business and all, but he took advantage of his job. Teachers and school psychologists complain about the system that him and his crony friend Klein (guess the religion) implemented even though there was no need for it. The DOE spent millions doing that. Has it helped? No. No one talks about Black and all his shady, no doubt favor-based, appointments.

No one talks about that! Teacher salaries are on the table but this guy's money is not. Has anybody ever talked about Bloolberg's relationship with Bernie Madoff?

Technically the article said 80% couldn't read well enough to be admitted to community college and were required to take a remedial reading course.  That's a little bit different than "they can't read".
