IIRC, teachers get a 5% raise.

Q: Are taxpayers getting a 5% increase in their incomes.. ?

I know we're not! Having moved here from a major city, it was difficult not to stick my head out the window and yell at the teachers standing around our tiny hometown with their signs. But everyone knows my husband from work, so it's probably wise to keep my opinions to myself.

Twice a day, I drive by the NH Public Employee Union building.

They have one of those signs out front where the number changes every day, you know, “240 Days Without A Contract”, the next day, “241 days...”, etc, etc.

The thing is, lots of guys drive by that sign thinking, “31 YEARS without a contract”

What makes them so special that an average working guy is going to care whether or not the public employees have a contract, reasoning (correctly) that if and when they get a contract, it will simply be screwing the rest of us over.
