Comment Its *not* $634M (Score 5, Informative) 365

Even the source link points out that its not $634M (except, since it does so in a "Fair and Balanced" way, you can't really tell)
You can either actually read the article in gory detail, or better yet, go read this breakdown of the numbers.
TL;DR --> its around $55.7M (which is still a lot, but is - decidedly - not $634M)

Comment Eliminate Income Tax for Teachers (Score 1) 1455

Given that education is one of the few things we can do to advance our country, and that teachers get paid too little - I would eliminate income tax for all teachers in the public school system.

Yes, there would be details to sort out (give a full exemption to all? sliding scale based on performance? what about private / charter schools?) - but I'd take this step in order to help those who are in the best position to help the economic future of our country.
