Daycare workers, Walmart workers, doctors, nurses, everyone else on earth can go to work except the poor, poor, teachers. It has EVERYTHING to do with politics.

The good news is these fools are defunding themselves and they don't even know it. People will find alternatives and realize public school teachers aren't really needed.

Couldn't say it better. I rather have a kid be behind and have to catch up then have parents, grandparents die and who knows who else the "asymptomatic "child infects.

I prefer schools but a few family members have home schooled and all have gone to college to become doctors, nurses and business people.

Better to be safe than sorry.

Actually not true my employer's remote work policy prior to Covid was 90% in the office and you could work remote no more then 1 day a week. Now management has stated we will not be going back even afterwards because of the savings they see as cost to provide work space for everyone. New polices now in planning stage to have shared work space. The days of everyone in the office are over and Business's see the cost savings in doing so. It challenges management to do a better job of setting goals for their employees and keeping track of how things are going. Prior to that it was all in person walk up and constant daily reminders who is doing what.
