Get rid of regulations,
Take away the 80k new employees from IRS and use the money to send soldiers to the border.
Guns aren't the problem (Oh, and teachers' unions are the real source of our problems) George Soros's prosecutors are.
Let Europe handle Russians in (fukkin teacher's unions) Ukraine.
Instead of worrying about climate change (Christie took care of the N.J. teachers' union) worry about China making money off of us, selling batteries.
Life is important. Jesus says so. (Jesus probably wouldn't support teachers' unions).

(51,636 posts)As a second career I chose to be a teacher. I chose to become a teacher in 1994 when I had to be realistic and realized I could never support myself with my Bach. Of Fine Arts Degree. After being laid off, for the 3rd time in 3 years due to the Raygun/Bush economy, I knew I had to choose a career that had a union. I ended up becoming the union rep at my school site and it saved my ass many, many times. From being laid off to no health insur I went through Hell but it would have been worse without union representation. What really pissed me off was all of the newer, younger teachers who did not support the union but benefited from them all the same!
My dad worked for AT&T and I remember the summer vacation I spent on the picket line. He was always pissed off at the young, female employees who didn't give a shit but benefited from union representation. Some things never change it seems.

I didn't watch, but I am sure there was some gloating there.
