Shakedown

The Waukesha Freeman reports negotiators for the Oconomowoc teachers' union walked out of negotiations after the school district offered a four percent increase this year and a four percent increase next year. The teachers' union wants a twenty percent increase over two years.

I think Tony Soprano offers a better vig. What cracks me up is when the teachers complain they need a bigger increase to keep up with the cost of living. Don't they realize they are driving up the cost of living with their outrageous demands?
