The Teacher Unions demand: (1) No Charter Schools; (2) No School Choice; (3) No Firing Bad or Incompetent Teachers; (4) No Curriculum Review; (5) No Opposing Questions of any kind... - Clearly, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Teacher Unions need to be given "The Regan Treatment"!

CORRUPTION
If police unions are bad and have to go, then so are other unions...unions defend the worst of the worst because they are paid with employees’ salaries.
I had this discussion in a previous life. I wanted to stop paying the "union dues", because: (a) It was a lot of money that I saw no benefit in paying; and (2) It was never presented as "an option" - it was "required". It would have been easier to negotiate with the Russian Mafia.
There are some pros and they can protect against abusive businesses, but on the whole they do more harm than good. It also turns people into groups. In Philly, buildings are fine until something happens that angers the union - then, all of a sudden, workers get the giant blow up rat and ‘mold’ signs out...mold only seems to be an issue for projects that piss the union off.
Groups may work well with teachers. What is clearly NOT working is mob boss Teacher Union leadership.
