  • I believe their capacities should be limited. A clear example of the negative effects of unions is a teacher's union. They have deprived the teaching profession of accountability. Shitty teachers can't be fired because of the threat of lawsuit against schools from a union. This is one of the larger problems with the status quo of public education.

    • Are you in the US? What do you mean by "shitty" teachers? Teachers the kids or the parents don't like or what? Can you give me some examples of schools not being able to fire incompetent teachers?

      We have strong teacher unions in Australia and there are more issues of teachers being wrongfully dismissed than the issue you've raised.

      • I am in the U.S.

        Here is an article written by an elementary school principal. It covers what he believes are the pros and cons of the teacher's union.
