John Kasich Attacks Teachers: 'If I Were King, I'd Ban Teachers Lounges'
Gov. John Kasich has it in for teachers like almost every other conservative politician and it is getting terribly sickening. That conservative hatred has them always pounding on the people who are hugely underpaid and who are taking care of their own kids in many cases.
While some Republicans have called for abolishing the federal Education Department, Ohio Gov. John Kasich on Wednesday set his sights on a smaller target: the teachers’lounge.
“There’s a constant negative … They’re going to take your benefits. They’re going to take your pay,” Kasich told former CNN anchor Campbell Brown, whose advocacy news site “The 74 million” hosted the forum along with the American Federation for Children.
If I were, not president, if I were king in America, I would abolish all teachers’ lounges where they sit together and worry about ‘woe is us’,” Kasich told Brown.
Kasich said he gets that “teachers feel pounded upon.” He lamented the state of pay for teachers as compared to say, football coaches.
