My wife loved her job as librarian in an elementary school in Virginia. At my insistence she resigned in 2009. For the past two decades the unraveling of the teaching profession has followed that of other professions. Janet's issues seem insurmountable to me and are a canary in the coal mine kind of indicator that life in the US coming apart. My hope is that dems wake up and follow the Robert Reich method of getting out positive messaging. At the time I graduated high school in 1965 it was apparent what needed to be done for health care, education and most other pillars of life. We had the means to get it done and I fully expected to be living in a sort of democratic utopia within a decade or two. Looking back I can see the right wing was invisible to me and yet they have been there at critical times to knock back progress.
