Those public sector workers known as "teachers" are kind of important |
|
"The one thing I know for sure, however, is this: The future of the country depends on the public-sector workers known as teachers. That's because unless we dramatically improve our educational performance, America's standard of living will be at risk." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/03/02/AR2011030203236.html

2. The elite want to kill public education |
|
They can afford to send their kids to private schools so they have no need for public schools.
The elite see a nation of teabaggers as a result of elimination of public education, too illiterate to know how they are being screwed.

5. No argument there - but this war on the teachers is not about devotion |
|
it is about eliminating anything that provides a public service. The teachers are just stuck in the cross-hairs.

6. Pretty soon we'll be in-sourcing teachers because young |
|
Americans won't to become teachers only to become of participant in a test tube profession.
