Yep, the only media coverage was 'sprited debate', 'heated', etc. Not one mention of a guy being attacked. The whole issue is amusing if it hadn't of turned violent. So the state basically passes a law, which it never should have needed to do, that actually gives people the right to choose to join a union instead of being forced to, and the union people get all wacked out over it. Heaven forbid if someone is allowed to actually make a choice. Instead of trying to use logic to persuade workers to join their union they have to resort to tactics like this, like teachers not showing up for work, and other nonsense. Oh wait, did I just suggest unions and liberals actually use logic? My bad... |

When you say that "MSM have been blocking coverage of this story", who counts as "MSM" and what counts as blocking coverage? I was sent this link by someone else yesterday: Michigan |

I live in a place that historically, has shunned the unions. I have been raised to believe that a union is a corruption of power, and their formation in industry is like turning over an hourglass, the time for a company to be able to do business and turn a profit, is on borrowed time. this is what has been shown in the automotive industries, with profitable plants being located in right-to-work states, and Detroit becoming a wasteland. If the truth is not made plain enough for voters, and liberal bullshit artists are able to still sway a majority of ANY state's referendum on right-to-work grounds, that should be a warning to the country at large, how corrupt the system has been gamed. This attack by union personnel likely disguised as "rogue elements" of the union battalions, is the impotent rage, liberal suckasses like to throw about in regard to the recent presidential farce of an election... it makes me smile that union fat cats are losing their grip, losing their free ride on the backs of American workers. I hope it continues, and the common sense that was shown by legislators in Michigan be a sounding bell for educators to quit obfuscating the union's corrupt operations at the expense of their free ride, as well. |

There was a time when unions did real good for workers, namely with workplace safety. However everything good that they accomplished is now federal law so they have no solid ground anymore and just keep lying to their workers who think they are needed. They take their dues, have their nice fancy retreats, pay off politicians and cause disruption (strikes) when whey want. Now, some of that could be said about big corporations, with the exception of disruptions, the only difference is at least corps actually create jobs and provide a marketable service of some kind. Their only real claim now is collective bargaining. Funny, because I've never once in my life needed someone else to negotiate my salary or benefits. And if I got fed up, I left for someplace else. Done it many times. |

If the teachers were honest, and didn't hide aspects of union involvement that were scurrilous at best and organized crime, at worst... then a bunch of the voting public would be aware of the dark side of unions instead of being preached as the answer for teacher's happiness, which equates to teachers who give a damn, if that was a logical relationship.... because, most people actually don't want to know, they only see their self-interest and if they are employed by a union, they especially don't want to see their good benefits of paying dues, be smeared by the bad. education about unions, on a macro level and without the whole "evil corporations want to take advantage of workers" mentality, would help alleviate the burden on companies that could tighten their belts and not go under, but union contractual obligations are killing the America that was built not so long ago. The tide is turning though, even with a union sympathizer in power at the top, the people are wising up and voting with more clarity, you can only fool some of the people all the time, you can't fool all of them. |

I love to get in these teacher discussion threads, since this turned out to be one. You guys really want to know what is killing education in America??? I'll give you a hint, it's not the unions. Still don't know....okay, it is a combination of things collapsing in on each other. 1)Atrocious parenting, where kids aren't held responsible for anything they do (because you can't upset your kids or inconvenience yourself - I mean, parents too self involved with their own lives to REALLY give a damn....work, facebook, forums...etc.). 2)F'ing no child left behind (passed by George W and politicians who haven't the first clue how and what is needed to actually make a positive difference). Kids have realized how to manipulate the system under this new law are don't have to do much of anything anymore to pass, little lone learn something. You can lead a horse to water all day long, but you can't force it to drink! |

The Japanese have it right. They single out the kids that are having trouble and then have them perform the task in front of the class until they get it right. Can you even imagine if that were to happen here? There would be a lawsuit, people getting fired, all hell would break loose. It's pathetic. |
