OF COURSE THEY WANT THE SCHOOLS TO STAY CLOSED.

THIS IS A GRAVY TRAIN FOR THE TEACHERS.

They are now getting paid NOT to teach, not to mention they are getting the same "stimulus checks" as the rest of us whenever the gubmint decides to dole them out - -  at the expense of the taxpayers.  The teachers are just TOO STUPID IN GOVERNMENT AND ECONOMICS CLASSES THEMSELVES to figure out that eventually they're robbing Peter to pay Paul, ultimately robbing THEMSELVES in the long run.  This is their tax money being doled out, too!!!  Most people want to go back to work but not the teachers.  Most of them are too lazy for words..........
