are against collective bargaining because they are opposed to unions in principle and opposed to public education in general. Remember, these people are neolibs, and neolibs are opposed to anything designed for the public good. Everything must be subject to "market forces," even though there are institutions in this society which CANNOT be successfully privatized to any extent.
Education is one of them. Private schools or the quasi-private charter schools can't even begin to absorb the great number of students. Besides, they can boot out students they don't want.
As for teachers' "unions," there needs to be REAL unions in the field, not these very expensive social clubs whose paid staff have no intention of really helping teachers but are using their cushy jobs as stepping stones to get cushy golden parachute school district jobs as what happened in my case.
Don't hold your breath Obama will do anything to support unions. He's University of Chicago through and through.
Just call him Shoeless O.
