    To all of the teachers in West Virginia! I am soooooooo proud of you! I know striking for this long was not easy, but you held out and got the raise you all deserve. I wish you could get a 50% raise instead of a 5% one. Proud of you all!https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/06/us/west-virginia-teachers-strike/index.html …

        Want even more inspiration? Check out this teacher who shared her story of taking the school bus around town to feed hungry kids even while she was striking:http://bit.ly/2D1Vf0B

        Shaun I've literally seen reports that teachers will continue the strike without union support because what union leaders and the governor negotiated is NOT what teachers want.

        Mindset change would be interesting. Instead of naturally doing more bc of a raise, the amount being unrealistic, it would be interesting to reduce work effort to a 5% level of what is normal. That is what the wealthy do, take more money & reduce output help. Creates conversation

        Sounds good but my main worry is the "20 million is to come out of general spending and Medicaid cuts" part.
