Actually, I am a Democrat and I don't believe in the Union.  I think the greater good would be better served without it.  The Union is dysfunctional and is like a dog with his tail between his legs anytime it tries to stand up for something important.  It keeps the profession stuck in mediocracy.

[b]If the Union is so great, then why are salaries so low?  Benefits???[/b]  We have crap for benefits.  I had a coworker who could not use his right hand and the MCPS insurance company denied the MRI the orthopedic doctor was ordering.

As far as being like PG County, with the grade fixing and washing down the curriculum - we are already there.[/quote]

Compared to what?

Well, I'll tell you compared to what, actually. Compare your salary and benefits to salaries and benefits for teachers in states where teachers' unions aren't allowed to bargain over salaries and benefits.

The cost of living is so much higher in the DC area that teachers might actually have a better standard of living in the nonunion states. PP is compairing apples to oranges.[/quote]
