Just read a blog post from a teacher complaining about a new contract that offers a 1% salary reduction. The blogger followed up with a request to give to his classroom via Donors Choose, the outfit that offered bribes to those who'd sit through Waiting for Superman, a propaganda film that enabled and encouraged things like his own salary reduction, not to mention giving up public school space to charter privateers like Geoffrey Canada and Eva Moskowitz.
I will not give a dime to Donors Choose, no matter what. To demonstrate it's not due to my inherent cheapness, I'll make a small donation to Class Size Matters instead.
If you would like to support a truly worthy cause, feel free to do the same.
