  Anybody else see that Utah should cease scheduling those pricks down south?

  I am sure that money could not have been used more appropriately. It isn’t like our Teachers, LEOs, and other first responders are not some of the lowest paid in the nation.
  
  The bastard children of this state don’t need better teachers at all. If you have to wait longer for emergency response because of a small workforce it is worth it and it makes you a stronger person.

    Lower paid? Maybe, if you don’t account for cost of living. Lowest paid? No.
    
    Average Utah teacher salary: 31/50 $49,393 (2013)
    
    Average National teacher salary: $52,362 (approx. equal to Vermont’s average 21/50)
    
    Median Utah police patrol officer salary: $44,280 (2010) (by the way, these wages are determined by municipality so they’re not relevant to discussing the Utah legislature)
    
    National Median p.p.o. salary: $53,281 (2017)
    
    Utah Paramedic Avg. Hourly: $16.91
    
    National 50th Percentile wage: $16.66
    
    Cost of living in Utah: 35th most expensive state to live in/17th least expensive state to live.

        I’m guessing you’re not addressing me, but the average teacher salary is very near the national average income and they earn it by working 185 days instead of the 231 norm of most private sector professionals. Teachers and police are middle income, not poor.

  Time to garnish some wages from the legislators pushing this. Why should the tax payers flit the bill for this stupid idea?

  A great thing about this site is that if people are considerate in selecting correct categories, I don’t have to even know that considerate people are posting about schools I’m indifferent to or political events that I don’t have any influence to change.

    Because this is relevant news about Utah athletics. Not to be insensitive, but there are other topics posted here that have nothing to do with football or sports. Don’t be naive that this is nothing.
