Saturday coffee + Old school. « Fred Klonsky

Saturday coffee. « Fred Klonsky:


Saturday coffee.


Retired teacher Ken Previti leaves these cards around to show the impact of teacher pensions on the Illinois economy.
The transition from active to retired teacher has been an eye opener for me.
I don’t think that Quinn, Madigan, Cross and Fahner get who they’re dealing with.
The movement of retired teachers and other state employees who only have their state pensions to live on is big and getting bigger.
People are angry.
And they are organized.
This is what I have discovered the past few weeks.
There are the two formal organizations of retired teachers: IEA-Retired and the Illinois Retired Teacher Association.


Old school.
