...All of this insanity is affecting how Americans view teachers’ unions. According to a new poll from Rasmussen, only 39% of Americans think it is a good idea that most teachers belong to public unions. That number is down from 45% a year ago. More than a third of respondents say it is a bad thing that so many teachers are in a union. The remainder either believe it has no impact or they aren’t sure...

Teachers have become the enemy, and we allowed it. We let the left infest the university system, then we sat back as teachers were grossly underpaid, (not as bad in recent times). Teaching doesn’t attract the best and brightest, which is fertile ground for the left.
One key point about teachers unions——they have ways to insure that long standing incompetent teachers are kept through tenure and appeals processes.
Kids in their classes have to suffer but the teachers and union leaders keep smiling.
Can we count teachers arguments against home schooling/ alternative schools as another covid 19 death?

UNIONS!
I am reminded of Napoleon’s sage advice, “Never interrupt an enemy when he is making a mistake.”
Teachers’ unions are destroying themselves. Let the self-destruction continue. In six months, nobody in America will support further paying these Marxist morons.
Militant public school teachers think America cannot survive without them. Boy, are they mistaken.
THERE ARE MANY PATRIOTIC AMERICANS FAR SMARTER THAN THESE TROUBLEMAKERS AND MORE CAPABLE OF TEACHING OUR YOUNG.
Those educated Americans who DO THE WORK in America are better prepared to teach young people because they can actually DO, not just teach. They have productive skills they have developed and are not just propagandists.
Grossly underpaid?!!!
I worked for a school district in the 90s, I know better! Back then it was already out of hand. Now any tenured teacher makes more than your average technician (who by the way are doing 10 times the work of any teacher and arguably had much more difficult schooling) and teachers are only working 9 months out of the year.
When you point all these things out to ‘them’ the first words are(snidely/sarcastically)
“Yes, EVERYTHING is a conspiracy” you can’t argue with that kind of mindset.
Most jurisdictions in my area had agreed on split classes etc but the union got it shut down to virtual.
Amazing how a Teachers Union in a NON UNION STATE can shut it down.
As if on CUE, the new tack is that closing the schools is hard on Special Interest Kids.
Hard telling what their ‘goal’ is (other than mass disruption) when they keep contradicting themselves.
First off; Teachers are not underpaid. If fact, in many areas, they are grossly overpaid!
I don’t either. Weren’t teachers supposedly “essential workers”??
Teachers in my school district in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh with 20 years service and a master degree make over $105,000 per year. That does not include the health care and pension only a normal person could dream of. They also get the summer off.
They also get the summer off.
********
And an extended weekend off for Thanksgiving, every year. And how long is Christmas break? And “spring break”? And every federal holiday.
Guaranteed holidays.
How many decent paying jobs have that going for them?
Better pay than most engineers get.
Excellent graphic.
They no longer have respect in Oregon after half the anti-fa rioters arrested were teachers and they SHOWED THEIR PICS in the news article. Obviously, they can’t work now because they are too busy rioting! After Biden loses, they won’t be able too work because they will be too busy looting, burning and blocking traffic for months. They deserve NO PAY or retirement collection if they are NOT WORKING.
My sister was a union teacher. My mom wrote her out of the will.
Dear Lord Jesus, I pray to you that the Republican party can re-form itself into a party that could do something about this. That could use this crises and all the hysteria and all the feckless behaviour by these Commie Front Teachers’ Unions to GIVE THE MONEY TO THE PARENTS and thereby BREAK THE BACKS OF THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS UNIONS and thereby SAVE CIVILIZATION. This prayer I make to You, oh Lord.
Pardon?
Public School teachers are earning a solidly middle class salary in wealthy areas and are the top earners in poor areas.
How the heck are they underpaid?
