He keeps talking about raising the pay of teachers. However, teachers are failing our children. American children suck at math, science, history, etc. They are doing so poorly because our teachers suck. If that wasn't bad enough, over 4 million students are estimated to be victims of everything from sexual harrasment to rape from faculty. Don't you have to be good at your job to earn a good pay at it?

don't you understand? republicans hate middle class, because they want to grow rich and allow poor to grow. hillary may not care about middle class but don't lump edwards with them.

[divineintervener]

I remember politicians promising this in the past. Democrat or Republican, it doesn't matter. The middle class will get the shaft. I don't care about democrats vote gaining initiatives - I mean - social initiatives. Cut government spending and leave my money alone.

thats why you change whom you tax the most. If I recall correctly John talked about increasing taxes on rich and giving more tax cuts for people like yourself.

[divineintervener]

I've posted this question before, and I'll likely post it again to ensure no one forgets: How, Mr Edwards, do you propose to pay for these expensive programs? I know how you're going to pay for it and no thank you sir. I'll keep what little pay check I have left. The government has already done quite enough for me.

SUCKER! I can't believe someone would trust ANY plitician, let alone this phony trial lwayer. P.T. Barnum was sure right, wasn't he?

[sonofrattler]

I love the "Class Envy" that the trial lawyer instigates. Trying to make me demand a bigger portion of some else's hard-earned income. I'd rather make it on my own than steal from someone else. "Spread the wealth" sounds great until Edwards wants to steal YOUR money. What a load of socialist bullshit.
