Socialism is like a poisonous snake.

Fundamentally, when people willingly choose to play with government collectivist schools ( which are the very definition of a socialist-entitlement snakes) they shouldn't be surprised that they get bitten.

In far too many government schools far too many teachers are faced with a “Sophie's Choice”: be dishonest or be fired. In other words, sell one’s soul to the socialist snake or get bitten.

At first Obamacare won't be that bad due to the professionalism and culture of honesty of those trained in the old system. In time, though, health care workers will be forced to make “Sophie's Choices” but the consequences won't be fake grades or cheating on standardized exams. The choices will literally mean life and death for those forced into the socialist snake's health care system.

I sure as heck did not vote for the current Socialist politicians who are responsible for this nightmare. That was the product of the liberal idiots who take the leftist media at their word uncritically. But I am suffering under their policies, as are thousands of other teachers. In my own classroom, I still stand up for moral behavior (e.g., I pull grappling boys and girls apart, I advocate modest dressing and march up and down aisles during test to forestall copying).

If I am to SURVIVE to fight another day—vote out these amoral liberal filth—I have to continue to support myself and my family. I hate having to pass kids who don’t deserve it, especially knowing that they KNOW you have to pass them and therefore they don’t have to do much in the way of work.

It’s SICK, it’s anxiety causing, and it’s directly a result of liberal politicians deciding in their ego mania that THEY know best, even about subjects about which they are ignorant. Education run as a business, never mind the kids. Kids are NOT widgets!
