Union Party vs. Taxpayer Party: PA's Political Paradigm

Matt, God bless you for the work you and CF does. I don't always agree w/ you but you are fighting for the taxpayers. We need to reform the way we fund the public schools in pa. The first step is to take the power away from the unions by eliminating their power to collect funds right out of the teachers paycks. The second step is to give teachers a fair choice whether to join the union or not. the third step is school choice. And the fourth step is changing the school property tax into a income/ sales tax in which only the state has control over. The fifth step is to make it illegal for public sector unions to lobby. So, with an all republican state gov., whats the problem. oh I forgot Corbett's a rino just like many of the others in Harrisburg. When more and more people lose their jobs and homes maybe someone will wake up. maybe The ship is sinking.

Hey Matt, you're into the pot alright. Once again the CF makes sure that it's biggest agenda item is NOT advocating for kids in school, taxpayers, or PA in general....... It is, plain and simple, to bust the unions. You can wrap that rascal in whatever blanket you want Matt, but the thing that scarred you and turned you against the unions will still be there. I suggest therapy and talking it out with a professional. A school psychologist would be able to help.
