Thats completely irrelevant to whether it makes sense to pay down the

Wrong, as always.

Recent history is completely irrelevant. We havent seen
the current rate of banks going bust in recent history either.

What matters is what the FDIC can do time wise if the shit does hit the fan very spectacularly indeed.

Wrong. No HE loan was ever mentioned, fuckwit.

There is just one mortgage, fuckwit.

That was never ever mentioned, fuckwit.

> money attempting to pay the mortgage, then lose the house because you can't pay the HE mortgage!

Thanks for that completely superfluous proof that you dont have a fucking
clue about what was actually being discussed, or anything else at all, either.

Some terminal fuckwit claiming to be

lie its way out of its predicament and fooled absolutely no one at all, as always.

> Are Teachers Overpaid?

According to AFT, the average teacher had a $47,602 salary in 2005
compared to $100,852 for attorneys.

Being a teacher is a good occupation compared to many unskilled jobs
and teachers are needed in all communities. In a college town, there
may not be enough teaching jobs to go around.

A stable family life with concerned parents will help children more
than the most expensive schools.

Providing, of course, that there isn't an oversupply of drug dealers and
day laborers in their neighborhoods.

How many jobs are available in those fields? Way smaller number than
the number of hopeless losers who figured that's what they'd do when
they grew up.

Who is talking about jobs? I'm talking about the bread and circuses
routine as first started by the romans who dispossed the workers to
build large estates and then had to feed and entertain them to
prevent them from rioting.

They dont need any teachers in schools to tell them how to handle that situation.

Even the hopelessly inadequate teachers do manage
to teach even those how to read and watch TV etc.
