Bush at his best

Only the unskilled worker. A person that is skilled at what they do is only held back by a union. Unions are for lazy people that don't want to work hard and make the same as others working hard.

Clearly you have absolutely no idea how a school district is ran.

Let's see. A lot of terrible teachers making the same as a very very few good ones.

No , let me break it down for you.

With school districts as they are, no matter what happens to the budget, teachers will still maintain jobs, since they are unionized.

Now, take away the unions, and teacher's salaries will fall under the school districts budget, which, I know at least around here, gets voted down more often then it is approved- which would mean a lot of teacher's out of jobs....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

See that's the problem with the PUBLIC school system combined with the fact that most schools are starving for teachers so they hire pretty much anyone with some sort of college degree whether they are really fit to be a teacher or not.

So the way to fix the situation is to banish unions and decrease the incentives to attract well qualified and competent people into the industry? How exactly would that improve things?

How does this correlate to doing away with the unions //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

The Republicans who split with the president withstood immense pressure from the White House and corporate lobbyists in order to take a stand with the organized labor, environmental, farm and international human rights groups that opposed the agreement. They were so courageous and so consistent in their determination to block the president's agenda that, during the floor debate, Representative Sherrod Brown, the Ohio Democrat who led opposition to CAFTA, specifically praised Republicans such as Idaho's Butch Otter and North Carolina's Walter Jones for their efforts. On the other hand, the Democrats who supported Bush's agenda faced little or no pressure from the White House. Nor did they show anything akin to courage or consistency. They simply voted with the White House because, either they agree with the president's misguided approach to global trade or they thought they could trade their votes for big contributions from the corporate interests that see the NAFTA/CAFTA model of free trade as an opportunity to improve business bottom lines at the expense of workers, the environment and communities in the U.S. and Latin America. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Public schools ARE unions. Private schools are not unionized and have teachers COMPETING for jobs which results in a much better education.

Impossible to compare the two...people pay money on top of their taxes to attend private schools...private schools can do what they want and hire who they want, they are in no part affiliated with public schooling.

you cant contribute any sort of educational superiority private schools may exhibit to the fact that the teachers aren't unionized. Thats just flawed.
