		<description>Thank the people who voted to cut taxes...the avg. saving of around $100.00 per house really help them big-time, where did they think most of the School funds came from? I see a long short-fall coming for &quot;ALL&quot; District employees,</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s see, they tell teachers how and when to do their jobs, preach nothing but FCAT all year long, and then still won&#039;t compensate them.  The amount of money that teachers spend out of their pockets to enhance the lives of our children should be taken into consideration.  I have never had a teacher that did not spend some of their own money to help their students.  This is typical for this area; gas, food, clothing, housing, school suplies and everything else keeps going up.  Except for the wages.  These teachers hold the key to the future of this county, they need to be awarded for educating our future tax payers. If the county would stop catering soley to tourism, and work to get some industry here, there would be more tax money around to pay teachers</description>
