The whole idea of government-controlled equality is just a fantasy dream. I don't know about you, but I don't like my government spending more of my money than I'd like. Maybe you're used to it, but I couldn't imagine having the government take half of my income and spend it on coked-up assholes living on the street using my money to fuel their addiction.

Labor unions just further the whole, "we demand everything and expect to give as little back as possible". I understand the purpose of trying to protect the workers' rights, but the teacher's union in America is a prime example of socialism gone awry.


If workers can't band together and protect their rights, who will?


I didn't say they can't band together, but I don't think they should have any special rights. I think if they want to band together to get higher wages, then let them, but if the business wants to replace those ungrateful workers, then they should be able to do that, too.

The Teacher's Union gets to the point where no teacher can get a bonus because that would be unfair to other, less productive teachers. Let's not forget to mention that it's nearly impossible to fire teachers. In a lot of cases, the schools will have bad teachers go to a different building to spend their day, while still being paid because schools can't fire them.

There has to be a balance between the employer and the employee. They naturally have that balance, and it throws it all off when the government tries to step in.


whoa.
