There is nothing more expensive to the future of a society than cheap education.
Governments that cut public education budgets destroy opportunity for our future.
Pay what it costs, get what we need for our children’s futures.

People shitting on union job action while enjoying their mandated coffee and lunch breaks and their pensions and their sick and vacation days like those all miraculously just arrived from the heavens
If you're wondering how things are going in Canada, tl;dr we're on the brink of a constitutional crisis because crack mayor's hash-dealing brother didn't want to give a modest pay increase to school janitors
Infuriating story. Facts of this case:
1. An off-duty cop was drunk driving
2. His SUV drifted into oncoming traffic, hitting a motorcyclist
3. He fled the scene
4. The motorcyclist lost his leg and nearly died
He managed to avoid charges of dangerous driving causing bodily harm
