TEACHERS STRIKE RED WAVE
Teachers strike in LA, CA coming in Feb post sick out on Jan 18.
Here’s what it says:
Teachers in CA are overwhelmed and underpaid.
They can see that in primarily red states, education is a priority.
They are pushing for more restrictions on charter schools that drain public schools funding. CA leads the nation in # of charter schools.
Here’s what it means:
Immigration has flooded public schools the WORST in CA. Teacher/counselor student ratios are TERRIBLE. More poorly educated immigrants means the classes are focused on helping those catch up - not leading those ahead. Smart parents use charter schools. They are hard to get it, more focused on future, and able to integrate more traditional course work (God, constitution, family).
It’s common knowledge the education system is liberal. Career Advancement means 100% committed to leftist agenda. Teachers aren’t stupid so they’ve stayed silent to protect their jobs… till now.
This is extremely relevant. Teacher strike means no school, parents unable to work, and will basically stop the city. Tax dollars pay for education. Parents will be pissed. Public outrage means visibility -more awakening -> forces action.
“Part of that message was in sync with the nationwide Red-for-Ed movement, which in 2018 swept across West Virginia, Oklahoma and Arizona; underscored how abysmally teachers are paid; and revealed that in conservative strongholds there is broad public support for education and the people who make it possible.”
