Make no mistake: I'm ALL FOR paying teachers well, and supporting them. EVERY teacher that has EVER had any of my three kids in class knows that for a fact. I have been friends with EVERY one of them.

But it's time to stop all the Teachers' Union cry-babying. It's like any other job - if you hate it, get out.
Do you notice that whenever you point out the fact they they only work for 9 months and then extrapolate what they would have made for working a whole year, the naysayers never respond. Isn't it amazing how the truth so readily quiets them.

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles
