Someone is way less hot than they think they are.

AA did the exact opposite.

It made race a deciding factor for a whole lot of college admission choices or job offers and such.

It put race at the head of a decision that should be otherwise be decided by merit. When you decide things by merit, you end up favoring one race over another. These decisions should be race-blind. Pick the best damn candidate.

When Obama was first elected, we had some talking about a post-race world. Great! So why the hell should we continue to discriminate against certain groups simply because of the color of their skin.

That's the beauty of supply and demand. If the supply of teachers goes down, then at some point the pay has to go up to fill that need.

I'm not disputing that and I'm not saying that teachers shouldn't be paid more. You're missing what I am saying. I am simply stating that if money is a consideration (and it is for just about everyone), then you should be looking up what jobs pay in a certain field before you even start your studies. And this goes for more than just teaching. I hear this all the time of how people are surprised that X field pays like shit.... well how the fuck did you get through 2 or 4 or more years of school and not look up what the job prospects are?!?

I replied to someone from NL and they said they got .21 Euro per km. I asked if they essentially got a raise if they moved further away. This sounds all ridiculous. If it costs $X to commute, then just negotiate a salary that is $X much more per year. I'll figure out how I get to world.

And if you move? Do you essentially get a raise?

This system seems fraught with errors and corruption, quite frankly, amd seems like it would be infinitely easier to just pay the person a better salary to compensate and let them figure it out.

I asked that question rhetorically. I was actually going to list a bunch of other questions as well to show how difficult this could turn out being, showing how stupid the idea is. What if one person is 15 miles away but no car, versus someone 40 miles away with a car? Or 2 people are the same distance away but one drives and the other doesn't? Do they get the same amount? What if someone moves further away... does that mean they get a raise?

No. It's both the norms and the suit itself.

And by all means, have whatever dress code you want for your wedding, but I'll tell you something that not one of your friends will admit to you - they'll hate you at least a little for it if you force them into a black tie. They'll all pretend it's fine, but they won't like it.

I already answered. This is idiotic. No one does this.
