Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
The teachers can’t lose on this one. The days in classrooms are mandated by law in Illinois thus every day on the picket line will be made up meaning no loss in pay for the teachers. Most have tenure so ca not be replaced and so the usual goes on. It is a never ending spiral but as we know, it’s for the children.
CTU are a gang of greedy thieves. Break this union.
Reconstitute CPS making all contracts invalid. Fire all CTU members. Start over. Allow school vouchers and expand the charter school program.

It’s a losing battle. Some things aren’t worth fighting for, when instead, you can just move 10 miles northwest to the suburbs. Like I did a decade ago.
