Remember how much I said I hated public labor unions, including teachers' unions?

Exhibit A: https://www.kusi.com/a-los-angeles-t...mands-are-met/

The LA Teachers Union is refusing to return to work until totally unrelated political demands are met, including "defund the police", "pass a wealth tax", and other shit.

They're actually holding 750,000 students' education hostage for political purposes. I don't mean office politics. I mean actual politics.

This is completely unacceptable, and exactly why these bullshit unions should never have been granted any power. Those behind forming the original labor unions stated that public labor unions shouldn't exist, as they are antithetical to the interests of the public.
