PURE GREED--- LOCAL TEACHER'S UNION HELD OUT FOR 4.47% PAY INCREASE

PURE GREED........ATTENTION ALL SENIOR CITIZENS.......IN SPITE OF FEDERAL GOVT ANNOUNCEMENT........NO SOCIAL SECURITY INCREASE FOR 2010 .....OR.....2011.............Our local teacher's union held out for a 4.47 % increase retroactive to July of last year and going through December of this year.  SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG WHEN UNIONS HAVE THIS MUCH POWER........REMEMBER.....Our local teachers also get ......STEP INCREASES......which are not required by state law....ALSO....Teachers get INCREASES JUST FOR TAKING COURSES.......This is RIDICULOUS!...Merely taking a course does not produce any positive results in the classroom.......WOW! HAVE WE BEEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF OVER THE YEARS!

Weak and conflicted interest Board members.

Dr.David Fletcher was only Kingston School Board member voting against this teacher's contract citing that teacher's should be individually paying more for their health benefits.

Since 2001, there were those who actually served on the school board who tried to "clean house" and warn the public. However, the apathy in the district is SO SEVERE, the union keeps control of the game each year with the selection of liberal spending board members.

The public decided to believe the "spin" set up by the Daily Fishwrapper, which was nothing more than the usual power brokers in town protecting their self interests.

They elect them over and over. WAKE UP KINGSTON!!!

I moved to another state.
