Teacher Union Influence

The powerful teachers’ unions have influence because they always have a good marketing ploy. Who wants to turn down funding for the kids?

A good portion of that cost goes for teachers. And those costs can be budget-busting. Yes, the public probably knows how much is spent per student. But how about salaries and pensions? And all for part-time, nine months of actual total work?

The same holds for other government employees. Especially the ones who retire well before age 65, and are double dippers on grandiose pensions. ( See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
