(52,129 posts)don't let that lie get out. I am not in WV but in small town NC and while Trump probably would have lost my area if only teachers voted (instead of the narrow win he actually posted) his loss would have been quite narrow.

(31,657 posts)that Oklahoma may be next in line for a state wide teachers' strike.
I can just hear the right wing dum dums now .... "If you don't like it, work somewhere else!"
Actually, that has been happening in OK .... a huge drain of teachers leaving to work somewhere else where they can live off their salary.
They can't lure or keep teachers in OK.

(21,856 posts)No one wants to work for these idiots anymore. They want us to pay for everything in real life with thoughts and prayers, remember?
They only represent those who have the money or inherit the money, and no one else. They are anti-worker, and pro-business so much, that it must hurt their ass everyday when they bend over for some new proposal that no one else would ever vote for.
They want only ... no fair wages, no health care, no benefits ever even when earned, and when everything is gone and given 100% by the voters to them, they want us to die.

(21,856 posts)It is a scary thing that you actually have people in this country who for the sake of a dollar, actually wish us harm instead. How human.
Have a wonderful day!
