Teachers' unions have about as much concern for teachers as a sea sponge does. About as much concern as school and school board administrators, teachers' bosses, who take salaries that are 4 to 10 times as much as the teachers actually doing the work.
If the unions were really working for the union members, and really truly wanted, why would they need mandatory dues? Why would they fear having to vote on their existence every year? If they're really that important, needed, and wanted, it should be an easy vote.
Maybe, though, they realize that if the unions were held accountable for their merit, they'd wither into nothingness because teachers like my mom feel their "union dues" are money best spent elsewhere.
Don't get me wrong, watching the morons on Fox calling teachers "overpaid" and "part-time workers" makes me want to punch some throats, but the union bosses aren't making life any better for teachers. Not from what I've seen.
