They make outrageous demands on taxpayers to go back to their classrooms or even to continue teaching classes from the comfort of their homes.

There are plenty of accredited teachers in this world who have Internet connections. Without the personal contact between students and teachers, our kids would be better served with on-line subject experts from Germany, Kansas or Bangalore.

Are the unions going represent the best interests of teachers who have to take a job at Walmart and interact with a thousand adults a day instead of 20 kids in a school?

I'm a huge supporter of public education. The classroom experience provides critical interaction with peers where kids learn to socialize and establish community relationships. Absent that interpersonal experience, I'd rather my kids spend screen time with teachers who have real expertise in math, history, English, etc.

Fuck teachers unions. They are signing their own death warrants.
