And those 27 jobs represent only ONE of Wisconsin’s school districts that has NOT had to lay off teachers to satisfy the hungry union beast.
Here, we were not so lucky. The individual teachers we talked to said they would be happy to sacrifice benefits to prevent lay-offs, but the union would have none of that. So some of our teachers will get fatter pieces of the pie whether they want it or not, their friends are now unemployed and, when school opens, there will be fewer teachers and fewer programs for the kids.
Meanwhile, we can trust the Laughing Stock Media to spin all this as greedy, evil Republicans breaking the backs of the poor and Democrat politicians claiming the unions just want what’s Best For The Children.

The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”” […]
