Goodbye Mr. Hernandez - California's Budget Crisis

WithJosh.com's Josh Skinner sits down with teacher Michael Hernandez, who has taught first grade to low income children in Orange County, California. Unfortunately on March 15, 2009, over 20,000 teachers, including Mr. Hernandez, were given a pink slip and were told their jobs may not be available in the Fall due to the state cutting 18 billion (yes, BILLION!) dollars in funding for education. Today Mr. Hernandez is one of thousands of teachers who are now unemployed. For More info

teaching is so mot worth it. You make only 45k a year and maybe work every other year. Also you have to pay to jump through bullshit loopholes started by polititions. I recomend all teacher leave the USA it is much better overseas in becuase they respect you there.

Sincerely, i haven`t one political ideology, and i cant to say:i hate this system cause i live in this system everyday and it give me some posibilites (like meet you), but i see some peoples who have nothing for the life. I imagine how hard this interview was for you: cause you`re front one person who say you:i´ll without my work and without money and you cant change this situation.

Hi, Josh: I wanna say you that i loved your interview with Mr. Hernández. Wow!, it was intense and so different to others interviews. I can`t to dissemble my interest for it (and for you; it`s obvious: i´m falling in love with you, and more in this mounths) I know it`s your best part like hoster, or my favourite version of Josh like hoster.

Josh:

Congratulations cause this video is the better!, sure. I´m so happy for your serious and social enterview, it`s so different to others enterview. I think that this is reflection of one liberal way , this is the crisis what are living. It´s more terrible respect the crisis of `30 decade cause it`s destroyed more echonomist, and it`s change the life of more person who have`t nothing for the life. So what, you can see many people without posibilites for change their situation. No future.
