[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even diehard union people hate police unions and teachers unions. [/quote] +1 I was even a leader in another public service union, but I have been displeased with WTU behavior. The sickout to prevent kids from going back to schools was an illegal strike. Laura Fuchs is still promoting the idea of striking. Here's the thing--strikes are meant to hurt the bosses, the people in power. The reason it's morally wrong (and illegal) for teachers to strike the way they did is that it hurts children if they stop teaching. Strikes are not meant to hurt the more vulnerable. If they wanted an effective collective action that didn't hurt children, they'd keep teaching but stop fulfilling various administrative duties.[/quote] Police and teachers unions give unions a bad name.
