I'm tired of teachers being underpaid as it is. A solid part of the reason our schools are falling behind is because we don't have as many of the best and brightest going into education because of the woefully low pay and retirements they get.

The unions have already agreed to accept the pay and benefit cuts, so why does the gov. up there still insist on the collective castration? Its a power play, IMHO.
