Zimmy, I'm trying to be kinder and gentler.
What in my post, exactly, was incorrect?
It is a fact that tenure guarantees jobs for teachers with seniority, rather than ability. That's what tenure is.
It is also a fact that kids do better with smaller class sizes, meaning more teachers. Yet teachers constantly choose layoffs over benefit reductions. In other words, teachers (and the unions) would rather see a small number of teachers with rich benefits, instead of more teachers with reasonable benefits. That necessarily results in fewer teachers, and that hurts the students.
How can you disagree with any of that?
