First They Came for the Teachers…
From today's New York Times letters page, in response to last week's article about GOP governors pushing for the abolition of teacher tenure (which I blogged here):
As the movement to eliminate tenure takes hold, it's worth asking advocates for dismissal of incompetent teachers whether they think that teachers are the only underperforming public-sector workers. Do they also favor more dismissals of subpar police officers and firefighters?
Short answer: Yep.
