Slaves to the Teacher Unions

The teacher unions are a longstanding cancerous influence on the body politic. They are highly accomplished in the art of political pressure, and funnel money into the accounts of whatever political candidates will uphold their monopoly on public schooling. In the 2000 election cycle, $2.7 million found its way into the Democratic Party war chest and was quite useful in promoting the idea that more governmental intervention in our economy is needed as a panacea for everything (the issue of state paid prescription drug coverage is a prime example). This past year in Florida , $3 million was poured into the McBride campaign in the hopes of defeating Govenor Jeb Bush. I am certain that the rank and file of the Florida unions would not be pleased to know their riches were wasted in such a fashion.
