Rahm Emmanuel is doing the same thing in Chicago. I got so sick of what was going on that I moved out of the city. I saw the writing on the wall and took my retirement, even though I could have taught for a few more years. I loved my job and my kids, but I could no longer stand the system. The politicians (national, state, and local) and their corporate bed partners are behind the fall of the U.S. economy. Now they are trying to find ways to fix what was once a well run school system. I now see it is happening in other states. It's all about money. They've milked the country until it was no longer able to function financially and now they're pointing fingers at each other. Makes me want to cry.
