Look, I don't like teacher's strikes any more than most people (look at my home port. I have two kids in school and I've been through it), but the issues to me are:

1) lousy conditions for my kids to be taught in
2) poor quality teachers (my apologies to the good ones that hang in there) because no one wants a profession that starts at <$30k right out of college. Some good people have a passion for teaching and stick with it despite the sacrifice. Some get into it and discover it's not lucrative enough to continue.

I suppose if you don't have kids, or don't give a rats @ss about their education, or make enough to afford private schools, then you might have a different take on it.
