This embodies everything we've come to know and love about the unions. Giving the shaft to the kids, the taxpayer and the education system. As long as they get "theirs", screw everybody else.
NJEA Union Teachers call black students n*****, talk about slandering Christie, say they want to “f*** with kids,” and brag about rigged elections and voter fraud.
They have it out for Christie. He told the unions off and didn't back down and did the layoffs.
They had the choice..no raises for 1 year and 1% of their paychecks towards healthcare. They said no so Christie did the layoffs.
Christie said the free government money ran out so he had no choice.
Its a corrupted system , well then again both the republican and Democratic system in this state is.....Christie is weak.....
Weak? He's running circles around them. And he's trying his best to change the ruinous burden the public sector unions place on state and local government.
Like many other school districts, they took that free Fed money and "created" jobs.
Now the money is gone and there's no way to pay those salaries so *poof*..jobs gone.
Now Texas put that money in the rainy day fund as we didn't need it but the Dogman (Doggett) and DC were pissed that we didn't go and create thousands of new jobs so now we have our own special "amendment" and we get NO Fed funding for education.
Our AG is seeing if this is legal. Dogman basically spit on his state to keep his handlers in DC happy.

Politics at its finest.
I would not be proud of Texas educational policies.
A mere 65% of all high school students in Texas graduate with a diploma in four years:
This is lower than the national average and far lower than New Jersey. More than 80% of all high school students in NJ graduate with a high school diploma in four years:
You get what you pay for. NJ teachers get results. Do they deserve huge pay raises? Probably not. But you can't argue with the effectiveness of the NJ educational system.
The national four year high school graduation rate is only 69%:
This compares favorably with the median national income for those holding a bachelor's degree of roughly $55k especially given NJ's high cost of living:
I'm always somewhere between irked and amused at conservatives. A few million dollars to run a company into the ground and fire workers is defended with the fire of a thousand suns. A reasonable salary for effective public servants is derided as an evil waste of money.
A percentage of a sample does not equal the population.
But don't let that get in the way of your daily hyperbole.
