Just what do we get from one of these “school unions”? If it’s to buy supplies let’s get into the biggest one we can, they will get the best prices. If it’s to manage our school and control these out of control salaries, lets do that ourselves and without a “union of any type”.
Giving up management to a big outside union can only lead to less control and possibly being the little guy in the union China will surely learn what the “short end of the stick is”.
I say let’s be careful and pick and choose just what we get into. Allowing this crooked State legislature we have to set the rules is only going to bankrupt this Town and possibly leave China voters with even less say in what our taxes are than we have now.
Show up for Town meeting, MAD or the Arabs will have half your paycheck and the teachers the other half.report abuse
