They should be negotiating with the taxpayers instead. Elected officials sell us down the river every time.

One of our friends was a grade school teacher. She was around 30 and extremely popular with parents and children. She was so sick of the school politics and the way things were run that she quit and became a tutor. She loves it. It actually pays better too.

Public schools are a 19th century paradigm that outlived its usefulness at the beginning of the 21st century.

“Working Families”? They spelled “socialist union bosses” wrong.

Unions served a noble purpose during the Industrial Revolution. They have far outlived their purpose, and become nothing but an arm of the Socialist (democrat) party.
Good, honest, hardworking employees do not need a union. They only serve to support the dead weight, and collect dues.

Haha. "Blow to workers" my ass. "Blow to union scum" more like.

I was a victim of this practice. Somehow the SEIU (don't ask how they got to represent a Sheriff's Dept) began taking everybody's money whether they joined the union or not. At the time I was all like What the Double F???

Thank you Supremes. And this is even before Kennedy resigned.

Stick THAT in your pocket, lefties.

MR PRESIDENT...SO MUCH WINNING!!!

“The ruling undermines the ability of educators to come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students.”

On behalf of students? I believe the quote from the movie was: Quick, act like Senators! Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit...

Great comments at the link.

My favorite so far:

James Connelly AZ Cowboy • 2 hours ago

"Imagine what would happen if liberals were forced to pay a union that supported a conservative"

Excellent point! Imagine if a union - representing "educators" - was supporting Donald Trump? Then most members of the far-left NEA would clamor for court action!

OK, I had to sit down for a little while. All this winning is making me dizzy.

“...come together and bargain collectively on behalf of students.”

STOP RIGHT THERE. This has nothing to do with students, and absolutely everything to do with teachers and union bosses.

I’m not criticizing good teachers. My Mom taught for 37 years, and she was great. Felt like she HAD TO BELONG to the NEA, since the legal protection would not be there (she thought) if she got sued for telling little Johnny to sit down and be quiet.

On behalf of students my foot. LIARS

Yes. It lets working families keep more of their money, and we can’t have THAT can we? I mean, where oh where are the union bosses going to vacation this year? Oh the humanity!

Great news!

Twenty years ago, I was a speech writer for a conservative state senator. I was forced to be a member of the SEIU, which took a percentage of my salary for union dues. The SEIU, in turn, took those dues and spent them on political candidates who would be running against Republicans like my boss. So, in essence, I was was forced to pay money that was being used to make me lose my job. It always p***ed me off beyond description. I’m glad to see they are finally getting a measure of ass handed to them.
