Colorado school district stands up to teachers union's 'stunning' rejection of capitalism: 'Anti-American'


AColorado school district is taking a stand against the state's largest teachers union after it passed a stunning resolution rejecting capitalism.

Woodland Park School Board Vice President David Illingworth told "Fox & Friends First" he was in "shock" after learning of the union's statement and outlined his school board's criticism of the "radical anti-American" resolution.


"I was pretty much in shock from that statement. As vice president of the school board in Woodland Park, it was just pretty stunning to see the biggest teachers union in the state of Colorado openly adopt a radical anti-American resolution like that and be really open about it," Illingworth said Tuesday.

"The mask has come off in Colorado. This union thinks they're too big to fail. They don't think they have to hide their anti-American radical political agenda any longer. And they're determined to push it not just on the government and the people, but on their kids."


The Colorado Education Association (CEA) released a pointed resolution last month that explained the union's rejection of the free-market economic system.

"CEA believes that capitalism requires exploitation of children, public schools, land, labor, and/or resources. Capitalism is in opposition to fully addressing systemic racism (the school to prison pipeline), climate change, patriarchy, (gender and LGBTQ disparities), education inequality, and income inequality," the resolution said.

The CEA is wrong.

Capitalism doesn't require exploitation. Marxist Socialism/Communism does require exploitation. Capitalism is a voluntary system. Socialism/Communism is mandatory.

then inform them they have just dissolved their union since unions are solely a capitalist construct.

now they are nothing but individuals to be fired and treated as individuals rather than as a group

not to mention their tidy salaries and benefits are direct results of capitalism.

And the fact that teachers unions are 90% female is a total coincidence.

Sounds like there should be some openings for teachers in Colorado.

All the more reason that HS and college need mandatory courses along the lines of "The Black Book of Communism" intricately detailing the murder of 100,000,000 people and its want and misery.

I guess the teachers are going to equalize their pay with the cooks, housekeeping, and the groundskeepers.

This is certifiably insane.

Democrats are getting bolder. They're ready to admit what they've been denying for over a century.

Neither should unions.

Especially for people paid with public taxes.

Nope, no openings, they don't like "your" kind.

The Moscow subways were built with slave labor from Stalin's gulags.
