Chicago Teachers only care about money

The strike was scheduled weeks before the strike.

How do I know?

On strike day at 12:01 AM RED strike shirts and PRE-PRINTED signs were
being handed out to picketers.

If this strike was not planned, then these items would take 1 or 2 days to produce.

And why are the teachers striking? FOR MONEY.

These teachers must know that the USA economy is deep in a recession.
YET instead of being happy they have jobs, they are asking for a pay raise!!!

They originally wanted a whopping 36% pay increase.

The teachers don't give a damn about the children.
45% of Chicago high school student drop out.
84% of graduating Chicago High School students read at a 4th grade level.

The Chicago school year is the shortest in all of the USA.

The Chicago school day is the shortest in all the USA>

So lets summarize:
1) The teachers can not teach and have not taught..
2) The students are short-changed in an education.
3) The teachers work the least in the USA
4) The teachers want a 36% pay raise!
5) The average teachers' pay salary for 9 months is $77,000
6) The average Chicago household yearly income is $44,000

And where will any teacher pay raise come from???

The money comes from your Illinois state taxes and your real estate taxes.

You and I are paying for these teachers who can not teach, who produce the worst
students in all the USA in the least amount of time spent teaching at the highest salary.

What do you think??

I think ALL these teachers should be fired and replaced with new teachers at
a salary comparable to the average Chicago household income of $44,000.

That's the way I see it...
