Stupid Educator News





 From Fox News: An animated video produced by a California teachers union uses the crude imagery of a rich man urinating on common folks to decry what narrator Ed Asner claims is rich people’s refusal to pay their share of taxes.

The crude footage is part of a “Tax the rich: An animated fairy tale,”  an eight-minute video written and directed by California Federation of Teachers’ communications director Fred Glass. In it, Asner describes a mythical land that seems to represent the U.S. and how it financed its services. He says the rich sought to evade taxes and put their money into “Wall Street” – yet another clue to the real identity of the storybook country.
“Don’t worry,” Asner says, speaking for the rich. “This is good for you, too. Because it will trickle down from us to you.”
The word “trickle” is illustrated with the bodily function metaphor, which Kyle Olson, founder of the Michigan-based Education Action Group, said left him disgusted.
“That was the most galling thing about it, the image of the rich guy standing at the top of the scale urinating down on the poor,” Olson said. “It’s nothing more than leftist propaganda.”
What these idiot teacher don't realize that in California, the evil rich pay their salaries.  Right now, in California, the top income tax rate for California tax payers is over 13%, on top of the federal income taxes they pay.  In fact, the rich, in California, pay over 50% of income in income tax.
It really makes you wonder how these stupid teachers actually made it through college, much less, through life.
By the way, Ed Asner is one of those evil rich people who apparently pees on the poor.  Feeling guilty, Ed?
