The headline should read "Did the voters get a good deal?" Even before the strike, the teachers were getting one of the best deals in the State of Illinois.

i would have to agree with bias. When will anyone adress this pension funding crisis?

Bias and Marco make a point that is necessary to discuss. All too often after a fire there is no concern for investigating the cause and preventing a recurrence. If we are truly concerned for the welfare of our children and ultimately our community, we need to work to solve the underlying reasons for the problem now. Unfortunately, what is now history will again repeat itself...

Still in disbelieve that the teachers would strike and then say its about the "children" For what they got, and how they did it, they should be ashamed of themselves.

Yes. All the comments above are well-taken, so we must remember.

I think that the teachers should be ashamed of themselves. It was for the children my @$$.
