I'm not arguing that all resources should go directly to students. All I’m saying is that giving resources DIRECTLY to TEACHERS is not the smartest way to invest in the education of that generation. I am surprised to hear you make arguments that this is in some way good policy. It is not. It is not even policy; it is a political move by Mr. Thompson to get the endorsement of the UFT. Too bad the kids of this city don’t have a powerful union representing them they would all be living in condos right now
