For decades the unions did pretty much what they wanted and ran the system into the ground out of greed, pure and simple.
What's there to think about?
They have gotten so used to "running things" through threats and intimidation that they feel entitled to replace elected legislatures, boards and councils.

That should send a clear and permanent message to the new batch of teachers. The taxpayers are the employers and the elected administrators will never again be allowed to make stupid contracts and then retire.
