Long story short: my school is funded directly by the state government, and because we are a school for the deaf serving minorities (duh), we were not subject to many of the cost-cutting, except payroll reduction due to massive State budget cuts, we still find ourselves underfunded and there's this thing where the school can decide who gets benefits or not. What the hell? That's employment discrimination if I ever heard of one. I could go on forever. Duncan and Obama are not doing us any favors yet.
