I honestly don't know that much about how public school is funded in other states, but I DO know the teacher's union is strong enough to negotiate higher pensions than can be afforded and that (in Pa, anyway) school districts are stretched to find a way to pay them
I guess I am not understanding why, if you correctly identify the teachers’ unions as the cause of the problem, do you think the taxpayers should foot the bill?
The teachers pilfered the public finances to enrich themselves, now we let them rob us again to make sure they get full enjoyment of their ill-gotten gains?
