| Latest Post: Started By: Rank: Category A new documentary film, "Looking for Superman" suggests that American education is severly flawed. Is this view justified?As a former history teacher, I believe that the majority of today's public issues are rooted in the quality - or lack thereof - of American education. Never in my own memory have I noticed so many students (and adults) who are so uninformed about even the most basic facts of history, civics, geography ... Recent studies suggest that U.S. schools rank well below other nations in the disciplines of math and science ... "Waiting for Superman" (which needs to be shown locally) says that the "blame" or "responsibility" for this sad state of affairs rests upon several factors - i.e. the distractions of TV and computer games; teachers' unions that support "tenure" for some incompetent teachers; uncaring parents; "pressure groups" that demonize public education to promote private, sectarian schools; politicians who burden schools with "unfunded mandates" like "No Child Left Behind" ... Or is it "all of the above" Member CommentsMunsterThe deception of ‘Union Conservatives’The Crackinac Center is at it again, this time extolling the virtues of a group called “Union Conservatives.” According to the Mighty Crack, The Crackinac Center is at it again, this time extolling the virtues of a group called “Union Conservatives.” According to the Mighty Crack,Troubled by union dues being used for politics?

MunsterLets end this republican war on working people “Right-to-work” laws are outdated and a throw-back to the anti-union agenda of another era. “Right-to-work” state laws are redundant and unneeded when the current federal law is actually examined. “Right-to-work” laws represent destructive economic development policy guided by extreme partisan politics. The goal should be to raise the standard of living for hard-working Hoosier families, not lower it. Hard-working Hoosier families deserve better than an antiquated law designed to raise corporate profits and lower worker wages and benefits. "Right to work for less" . c om Posted 16 days ago.

Fact: Workers are the union. A union is simply a democratic organization of working people standing up for their rights on the job and in society. Unions also bring people together in the community to stand up for issues that matter to all working people. Myth: Unions mean more conflict in the workplace. Fact: Unions can make the workplace a more harmonious place to work. A union contract allows the company and workers to sit down as equals and discuss problems as they come up. Without a union, workers’ lives are often in more turmoil because they have to deal with more favoritism and less economic security. Myth: Companies close due to unions. Fact: Companies close for economic reasons—and the vast majority of companies that close are nonunion. Some companies, however, like to keep this myth alive by illegally threatening workers who attempt to form a union ! Posted 16 days ago. R1KRA8We are Ohio is where the Union Bosses propagate LIES about the Ohio Workplace Freedom Amendment and other Right To Work laws . . .
Munster secretly knows that the Union Fat Cats’ fight against the Ohio Workplace Freedom Amendment has nothing to do with helping Today’s Workers and all to do with keeping the big flow of union donations to candidates of the Union Fat Cats’ CHOICE and feathering their own nests.
The long-time retired dues exempt Munster & a teacher of 28+ years are primarily interesting in feathering their own nest by means of denying the Today’s workers the freedom to choose whether to participate in a labor organization as a condition of employment. Now you know . . . why Munster has to resort to name-calling, insults, and wildly false claims in his vehement fight against Today’ workers’ freedom to choose whether to participate in a labor organization as a condition of employment..
