I went to public school all my life. I saw it firsthand. Terrible teachers cannot be fired if they have seniority, unless they either don't show up for work or commit a crime. Other than that, they can get away with almost anything.
Public unions simply shouldn't exist. It perverts the entire concept of the reason unions exist in the first place -- to give workers a collective voice against greedy corporations acting in their own interests. Since the government is not private industry and works for the people, unions of government workers make zero sense.
