Reply to If PA can't work out a deal to fund transit when COVID relief runs out, there could be massive service cuts to transit again. Does anyone remember when something similar happened in 2007-2011 and how it affected things? I live in Philly but this could happen to us too and I'm curious what it's like by MrATLien

When Covid funds run out, the world burns. This is just peeking behind the curtain.

The educators and communities do not want a change, at least the well-off communities. They want their tax revenue to go to their communities. The teachers feel the same, do not spread their pot. However, you recognize the issue, and so does anyone who understands the funding. So, holding meetings and speaking is dribble drabble, and nothing will change.

Thanks for being on reddit. Public education will continue to suffer until there is strong leadership willing to make change. Hold the union leadership accountable get younger people interested in the field again. Not just meet and shake hands.

What can you do to change the current state of public education in Pennsylvania? Having individual communities or districts be the factor for educators' salaries needs to change. Is this ever discussed?
