I just can not sit here an listen to you degrade teachers like this.

Sorry if I pissed you off, FL. I should have been more explicit. Some Teachers feel as I said, but all Teacher's Unions operate on the basis that the problem is that salaries are too low and the solution is to be found in paying more money.

The solution will be reached by changing the structure, IMO. Starting with restricting the power of the Teachers Union.

The fact that your wife is not motivated by money but by motivating her students speaks well for her and is true of many teachers. I would not be surprised to hear that she believes many of the problems she faces at school are caused by the Bureaucracy she has to deal with. My "ex" a retired California School Teacher, had the same outlook. And she did one hell of a job as a Teacher.

I fought the battle for Vouchers in California, and dealt with the CTA on a "nose to nose" basis. I know just how strong that Union is.
