So you save 100 in taxes and pay 500 in printing costs... You're down 400 for supplying your employer. Lol
They’re pretty obviously supplying it for their students, not their employer. Weird as hell to rub someone’s nose in the fact their students are trapped in a school system that doesn’t even supply teachers with proper access to printed materials. Even Reddit used to run a donor program to help teachers out with the costs.
It's like tipping... It happens because we let it. It's so incredibly common that literally poor teachers are paying for basic supplies the school doesn't when they should look those kids in the eyes and tell them they are sorry and that their society and school have failed them and to go home and tell their parents to vote differently.
Oh yeah, mate, that's gonna fix it.
