Those who support these union thug tactics (no matter where they hail or seek harbor) are no better than third world criminal organizations that physically cripple people so they’ll have to beg for a living and give the lion’s share of the take to their oppressors.
Crippling people emotionally is worse than crippling them physically; loss of learning is worse than being crippled from a chopped off limb.
My sweetie lives in Chicago. He’s trapped.
He has two elderly parents who need him around. He’s been forced (due to the economy) to teach in a private Catholic school, earning 1/3 of what he used to earn. He is also a widower, with 4 kids.
He also has two sisters. Neither of the “real world.” One holds some sort of education leadership position at Stanford (mind you, never been in a classroom before students. She teaches teachers how to teach!) The other sister holds some technology position at the board level, and she has also not been in a classroom before students.
These two think the economy is fine, thank you. They have no idea why Obama is not the greatest thing since sliced bread.
