Dear striking teachers in Wisconsin...

[Bubblehead1980]

Get your as..ugh rear ends back in the classroom and do your jobs.You are neglecting students and disrupting their education.The Governor should begin recruitment of replacement teachers and ensure every teacher not back in class monday unless out for a legitimate reason is fired, use substitutes until permanent replacements are found.Sick of union scum standing in the way of this country due to their greed and desire for bloated benefits, lets hope Governor Walker does not give in.

I don't get how an u-boat can replace a teacher...

I totally agree with that point of view when it comes to pro sports unions, Auto workers, etc.

But do you honestly think teachers are overpaid?

I would assume that there were many rounds of negotiations before this happened, and this is what they felt they needed to do.

You can thank union scum for your forty hour work week and other things we take for granted in our workplaces.

I wish for once you could post something without name calling being involved. I lose interest very fast when people do that, or feel the need to swear, or shout to make a point.

A 40 hour work week, millions of American families are working two jobs or over 60 hours a week to pay bills. The majority of small buinesses here have made deep cuts, cut or dropped benefits, etc...Course Unions and Corporations are killing small business, both pets of Dems and Rep.

We that pay taxes have to support huge benefit packages for these union workers while we do without benefits.... As Obama said, we all have to give, time unions get in line with the rest of us. Bankrupt states in the red are now facing hard facts, the cuts will have to be deep, many states are laying off. States don't do something now employess may find the bank turning down worthless paychecks.

I know plenty of unemployed people that would love to have these jobs and do them well, based on who is the best at it. Unions had a place once, Many of these union teachers suck, but almost impossible to fire. Pay and benefits should be based on who doe's the best job.

Heh, yeah, sure, buddy.

I haven't worked 40 hours or less per week since ... well, since ... I have no idea.

So here's to those public employee unions which allow SOME people to work 40 hours a week while others (such as myself and any other private taxpayer) pays their bills.

So, Aramike, are you going to Madison for the party?
See, we don't have your problem here in or-gone, as the public union has absolute control over this state. Only their sock puppets get elected, so there is never any civil unrest.

YEAH I AGREE!




.

If they was working those 60 hours in one job instead of two wouldn't they be getting a hell of a lot more money.

I haven't worked 40 hours or less per week since ... well, since ... I have no idea.

I havn't either, but anthing over the 37 or 38.5 or 39 or 40 or whichever it is in that country at the time has been at the time has always been paid as overtime unless its on price.

If you knew the pay and benefits packages of Wisconsin teachers, I highly doubt you'd find them to be underpaid.

Yes, they need to get their asses back in the classrooms. Especially considering that the bill they are protesting has NOTHING TO DO WITH TEACHERS.

This is all about union thuggery.

Wow I just realized I care so little about politics that I didn't even know who was Governor of my state.
