The problem is actually not with the unions (as bad as they are). The problem is with the state laws that make it difficult - if not impossible - to fire striking workers.

Let’s say that you and I are both lathe operators. We decide to go to the boss together, and demand a raise (that’s a union move). And we tell the boss that if he doesn’t agree, we will both go on strike. There is nothing at all wrong with that! It’s a free country.

Well, since it’s a free country, the boss should be able to fire us and then bring in permanent replacements. But in many states that would be illegal. So it’s not a level playing field. The workers hold too many cards.

Those who can, do
Those who cannot, teach
Those who cannot teach, teach the teachers
Those cannot teach the teachers. become the deans.

What those teachers learned from their 60s-80s demonstrations and can now use and show by example to young students in 2023:

We shall, we shall not be moved.

Woke up this mornin’ with my mind set on freedom.

I ain’t afraid of your jails ‘cause I want my freedom, I
want my freedom now.

We shall overcome someday.

This song Union Maid was written in the office of the Oklahoma City Communist Party——

The teachers fail to teach reading and writing and arithmetic and history yet want a big pay increase.
