        No, we are just working for less each year as our insurance deductions rise. This year TRS ActiveCare is literally about $145 more per month and our raises were$20 per month so my district is working for about$1500 less this year. Who wants a job where you lose money each year?

        Companies open businesses and close them all the time. Good news is these people will not have a had time finding another job. That’s super cool!

        So glad to see you talking about improving the situation our educators and retirees are facing ... wait! So sorry, you were talking about businesses again. Where was my head? Educators don't count until election time when #Txlege needs their vote, after that we're just suckers.

        How about the laying off of thousands because one of those corporations is closing down 60+ stores nationwide? Cannot take credit for the good and not take credit for the bad? I’m sure your feeble mind understands.

        And yet just as many businesses are closing shop. Walmart for example "were giving everyone a raise, and a bonus".... "unless they have any marks against them, and btw we are closing a couple of thousand of stores and essentially froze cashier hiring to push automation on people"

        Yup. My daughter just received a $10K bonus and a $10K raise and due to the new rate, she will also keep more of HER OWN EARNINGS. 👍🏾
