Trying to force a 16.7 increase in the work day without negotiation had a lot more to do with it. Now it is true that it would be very risky to allow Rahm to decide who goes and who stays because you know how that would go.

They are evaluated every year and can be fired and are.

Thanks for pointing out my misuse of the word. I am sure there are plenty of similar mistakes in my comments. How about pointing them out to me.

BTW I never said they made 75% “less” than suburban teachers, I said they made about 75% as much.

Hmm. Sounds like free market capitalism (ie., supply and demand) is intruding on the teachers union's attempt to fleece taxpayers.
Oh freaking well. Boo hoo.

Huh? Free market capitalism has nothing to do with the number of jobs in the suburbs.
