I wrote my stage 8 critique on Chris’ Blog “To Pay or Not to Pay—That is the Question”. This title caught my attention and could not pass this up. It caught my eye and this article did as well. The average NON -Degreed employee with the State of Texas, men and women that get up and actually work everyday earn on average less than $45,000 a year. Many of them are worried that their jobs will not be here in another year but we are going to pay previously convicted criminals money that only someone with a college education would earn, sheer generous. I understand that they should be compensated for being wrongly convicted but why not what an average worker would earn, these guys had 3 hots and a cot, free medical plus the opportunity for an education and vocational training while inside. They deserve something but not $80,000 per year.
