Chicago public school teachers make an average of $71,000 a year + benefits

The average American’s year salary is about $51,000, down $4,000 since the Obama reign of terror began. A Chicago public school teacher who doesn’t even work all year makes an average of $71,000 per year ($20,000 more than the average American plus benefits), and they wouldn’t accept a 16% pay raise. The only network to mention the Chicago public school teacher’s average salary was CBS. Other dinosaur networks didn’t seem it was important to mention that they make an average of $20,000 than the average U.S. worker.

All three morning shows on Monday covered the massive teachers strike in Rahm Emanuel’s Chicago that left 350,000 students in the lurch. However, only CBS This Morning explained that the teachers, through their public sector unions, are already well compensated, making an average salary of $71,000 a year (plus benefits).
