You have to at least give the Colorado Education Association (CEA) points for brazen candor. At its 97th Annual Delegate Assembly in April, the state’s largest teachers’ union voted to formally oppose capitalism as an economic system.
The announcement came as little surprise to Coloradans who’ve watched as the union has veered so far to the left in recent years it’s now off the road entirely. What should set off alarm bells for everyone, however, is that CEA believes its militancy no longer has to be denied or defended.
A former Denver Public Schools teacher took to Twitter on April 22 to proclaim that Colorado's "largest union of over 39,000 education workers" had "just ratified a resolution...against capitalism as an economic system," meaning "CEA may now publicly advocate & lobby for anti-capitalist policies at the CO Capitol."
Although the union refuses to publicize the language of the anti-capitalist resolution, CEA President Amie Baca-Oehlert confirmed its existence in an email to inquiring media, stating, “After a lengthy discussion, the CEA delegates adopted one resolution this year related to the impacts of capitalism on our students, public schools, communities and state.”

Close the public schools. These pinkos can find work cleaning the fryers at McDonalds.
Fine, they can start with giving up
Their salaries and perks, and begin working For free. (Not sure they would be worth it even then)
Over 5000 years of history and only Capitalism has seen a rise in the standard of living across all members of that society. From Walden, New Harmony, and others to modern-day Venezuela, Socialism has always failed, yet these non-thinking twits want to try it again. The very definition of stupidity.
Kill a commie for mommy was always wisdom.
Thanks. Guess I’ll just help spread the joy. 😁👍
Gee, they demand all the benefits of a republic and demand communism. What could go wrong?
An abundance of food? Clothing? Modern dentistry? Modern everyday comforts and conveniences that were unheard of a century ago? The cheap availability of information, via books and electronic media? Social class mobility?
What is it that they object to?
Shut. It. Down.
Teachers are Garbage People these days.
In my book, those teachers have each won a free helicopter ride

These con artists pretending to be teachers love communism, eh? They either don’t know or care about the hundreds of millions of deaths, not to mention producing some of the most evil tyrants ever to walk the earth, along with some of the worst environmental destruction in history (people think capitalism destroys the earth, but communism is even worse for the planet!)!
“What is it that they object to?”
That somebody else is making more than they are. And the lack of cool communist poster art.
Most of them are barely capable of washing the lettuce.
Their arguments are most always,” But we’ll do it right this time,” or,” America is already socialist, which programs would you cut?”
Ahh the latter, let me cut all the ribbons
