The teachers unions have been a huge part of the liberalcause thru their large funding and their campaign workers.

I believe this is one of the biggest threats we face in our country. The indoctrination of children with their left wing ideology and the graduation of too many kids who can't read or write.

Too bad the pols are scared to death to take them on. We need competition by NON-union workers/teachers.

Is there such a person as a "non-union teacher/worker"?

[blackdog]

From an equal protection argument, there is not a non-profit organization in this country who cannot violate IRS laws in bold, in your face fashion based on the NEA and it's actions which go unquestioned by those tasked with questioning.

Discipline a student once for fighting, improper language, or any number of unacceptable behaviors; have the parents come to school and blame the teacher and you realize why there will never be non-union teachers.

Complete lack of parental support or accountability of their parenting skills in many families today. Add in all the politics and as teacher you quickly realize why you mark repub on that union application.
