(9,126 posts)The reight has done an excellent job of demonizing union workers as lazy and protected. I don't have television, and whenever I went over to my mother's I was always shocked at least once a week there was an anti-teacher story on the local news. Without fail. Or a Dr. Phil about teachers being perverts. Not that we should turn a bling eye to this issue, but there were never positive stories. Even Sandy Hook, the teachers were not identified, nor was their heroism highlighted.
Busting unions is the wet dream of the corporations. Democrats need to fight against it, not enable it. These billionaires against education are a blight. Every public employee might have to get together in a national strike (and police that means you.)
Thanks for fighting for teachers!
