[quote=Anonymous]The teachers are striking because the cost of housing in the Bay Area is absurd. And they would like their families to be covered by health insurance. The cost of housing and health insurance are major issues in many places. A lot of middle class families - especially those that don't own a house - can't afford to live in major metropolitan areas. If San Francisco wants public school teachers - and nurses, firefighters, and so on - they are going to have to pay them. All those Bay Area homeowners are sitting on pots of gold. If they want basic public services like schools, they are going to have to pay the people that deliver those services viable wages and offer decent health insurance. [/quote]
