Guess you haven't been listening to all of the things the Dems want to
"invest" in. Like throwing more money in the direction of the teachers'
unions.

I don't think that anyone in the Dem party is throwing money at the unions. Perhaps throwing money at teachers,
who are vastly underpaid.

And the teachers aren't "in the direction" of the teachers' unions? Good
point, perhaps. Union folks frequently have their own separate agendas.

No. They're represented by the union for lots of things, but no one advocated giving tax money to the union, which is what you tried to claim.

As to the vastly underpaid matter, I'd say that in many cases they're paid
more than their performance justifies.

Perhaps, but the vast majority are underpaid and do a great job. Sorry you had some bad experiences!
