Meanwhile, the NEA's annual budget is well more than $300 million, 10 times that of the entire AFL-CIO. Its membership, roughly 2.2 million, is second only to the Teamsters.

The NEA has become so influential in American society that it has become worthy of regulation in the manner of utilities, the stock market and other unions. The Taft-Hartly Act was passed in the same vain to temper the power of unions.

The NEA, and its elite socialist agenda, is not conducive to the Democrats "progressive" social agenda for the blue collar constituents that the Democrats claim to champion. The NEA is bad for the Democrats and worse for America. Its only purpose is to advance the interests of its own "Nomenclatura", as the article insinuates.

I wish the democrats political power continues to decline as long as they are associated with the incredibly anti-American NEA.
