A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
CTU is a political activist group, and should be designated as such. They stopped being an education labor union years ago. CTU doesn’t care about students or education. They are about power and politics only. Chicago students need a real teacher’s union who are about fighting for improving education.
And that’s how we have that idiot in the mayors office.
It is legal bribery, the CTU is a kind of mafia extorting the taxpayers.
Does anyone think they will support TED, no chance in hell they will support a fiscally responsible candidate.
Not only does Chicago have the most gang members of any city in the US, it also has the most con artists of any city. That’s my theory anyway. CTU perpetrates a huge con job on the taxpayers. Money from taxpayers is drained, and CTU delivers little to zero in return.
Horrendous. I guess what the Politburo wants, the Politburo gets.
