A comment on Silicon Valley workers may pursue collusion case as group. Parent comment
Teachers work about 186 days a year, so the magic number we have to get to is $186K.
Let's say the high school gym teacher. Late 30s, been there for 15 years. Base salary, $125K.
Health benefit package worth $18K a year. Pension benefits worth maybe $40K a year.
He also gets $7K in SS taxes paid, and other assorted taxes we'll ignore.
125+18+40+7 = $190k
(I suppose to be fair we must deduct union dues from the total. I have no idea how much union dues are.)
