During the last gubernatorial campaign, the education unions abandoned the Democratic party because they believed the Republican voodoo economics plan could cut revenues while increasing spending (especially on them). The Republican candidate promised that she could do that without raising taxes or laying off employees. So it should come as no surprise that the morning paper indicates there will be no pay raises for educators and in fact, there may be pay cuts or lay-offs.
Shocked, I say. Shocked. I guess it just goes to show that even highly educated people can be fooled.
