Reply #312: Teacher's Unions are a huge problem,

[sense]

they refuse to budge. There is no reason in the world for tenure. Every person in every job should be subject to evaluation. Most are, yet we continue to allow special treatment of teachers, to the detriment of our children and our future. Greed is an ugly thing. Who's protecting the children's right to a decent education at their rate and level of learning? The education of our children shouldn't be about guaranteeing jobs for adults. Other countries get it. They understand that if their citizens are educated to the best of each individuals capability it's win-win. With all their citizens performing well, their countries prosper and innovate. We're far too interested in controlling people instead of educating them. We are lagging other countries in so many areas, almost all traceable to a lack of true education.

If the Teacher's unions won't negotiate on tenure, let alone any of the other problems, we'll have to move to a different system they don't control. I'm very pro union, but not at the expense of our children and our future. They need a reality check.
