In Delsea, New Jersey, the teachers’ union (a sub-chapter of the NEA) has been fighting over the amount of their pay increases (not decreases) since 2010. On Valentine’s Day, according to NJ.com, the union teachers decided to make their grievance personal by protesting in front of the Delsea school board president’s home. Unfortunately, the school board president was not home—but his children were, including his daughter | Read More »

By: LaborUnionReport (Diary)  |  October 26th at 12:00 AM  | 

With Saul Alinsky‘s Rules for Radicals still listed in ‘The Activist’s Library’ on the National Education Association’s website, as disturbing as this is, it really should come as no surprise. Yet, somehow, the blatancy of the NEA Foundation giving a grant to a ‘team’ of teachers in Muskego, Wisconsin to create activists out of first and second graders is still shocking.

Last week, many Americans watched President Obama stand in front of of his teleprompters and Congress and sell—no, demand—a still unwritten bill dubbed the American Jobs Act. While the President certainly gives an entertaining teleprompted speech, his demands were reminiscent of a third-world barter between a goat herder and a villager: In exchange for two goats (temporary tax cuts), you can give your daughter and her dowry (nearly | Read More »

Last year, for the first time ever, the number of public-sector union members exceeded private-sector union members.  As it has been estimated (conservatively) that private-sector union members (most of them under the threat of losing their jobs) shell out  $13-$15 billion annually in union dues, given the growth in public-sector unions, the union industry easily rakes in in excess of $26 billion or more per year in | Read More »

Public-Sector Unions: ‘No recession for those who live off of taxpayers’…

Across the country, teachers (aka those who are responsible for educating children and young adults basic skills in reading, writing and arithmetic…and a whole lot more) are acting out. One of the basic tenets in business or of common sense (which, unfortunately, they don’t teach in school) is that you cannot eat more than you produce.  However, teachers and, more importantly, their unions seem to be | Read More »
