>> with the chicago teachers union got the media attention but the battle to control the school will continue but the basic issue who has the power and who pays? it is more than taxpayers they say it is good day for track -- protect from arbitrary dismissal. is that true? no. all agreements make it hard to fire people and everyone be treated equally are bad for customers and employees

and the union workers themselves. but no luck with that argument to some workers. >> thousands of workers came here to say we need a second bill of rights. a living wage, full employment, start with lie with some workers are more effective and the rules mean the slackers cannot be fired? >> does that bother you this slacker gets paid when you don't? >> there are no slackers. >> we have to bring the person up to speed. >> do they all get up to speed? >> absolutely. >> who knew.

john till then has steadied the illinois teachers' union. i assume they are up to speed? >> it is a great irony of the again ceiling. people don't like that if the teacher is below par. but parents want to identify those teachers who are exceptional to be rewarded with merit pay. they want everybody -- everybody to be treated the same. >> they are spending 13,000 per student in chicago. >> exceptional teachers take those four kids would be greatly rewarded. but with the strike we just had they were fighting for the lack of accountability.

they don't want to be held accountable. there was no apparent present at the negotiating table. john: most parents want to do the right thing. the average wage is 40,000. chicago teachers? >> 71,000 according to the union and the school district says 76,009 including pension closer at 90% which is more than our tax -- architects or nurses. >> we have the shortest school day and a few list ness met minutes. >> they say they are overworked. >> a child k-12 will get about three years less destruction that is why the

teachers who are so well paid performed so poorly. for attend students don't graduate. john: they say you don't count the time away from school. they do but the bls still found the average public-school teacher works 36 point* five hours per week. >> is a short week the average stay is five hours and 45 minutes in chicago the charter schools work longer and graduate at 76% compared to the average of 56%. john: and those charter school teachers are not striking. >> and they are paid less. many left the chicago

public-school system to get in front of the classroom to make a difference. john: appearance 93% are rated superior excellent. >> where do you know, between 93 -- 100 and 93 are excellent? that is the same distortion. we know that some are exceptional. the union does not want to identify them and drag overall performance down. that is the real outrage. john: kennedy, i want to bring you into the discussion. she went to the big union rally with a more hostile reception. [laughter] your daughter is in the government's goal in moss angeles.

but they should be what makes children more successful. [applause] john: the union says it is not just about money. they don't think this system is fair to get students whose parents don't care and the teachers that struggle are unfairly judged. >> this is what is shameful. the unions blame the hard chips on the students. no question but the point* that the mayor was making you want to identify this teachers and move them farther and faster. that is what the union would tries to avoid.

>> let's go back to the union rally. john: i was pleased most protesters were simple. we had an argument that kennedy had a different experience maybe she proposed the employer bill of rights. >> i felt lonely. i drafted something to protect business under. >> to hire and fire. >> she spent more time than i did it was fine until she tried to get workers to sign her petition. >> data maybe enough as it is. >> why don't you want to build america?

john: that siren came from the union member at as a response to drown her out to. >> are you kidding me? [laughter] john: what was that about? they did not like the question? >> they did not want union members to think for themselves and their reps said to someone from fox business was there. john: until you raise the concept of employers have a right. >> my husband owns a small business. i am sympathetic to small business owners.

that is what we have to focus on. john: people don't strike outside of movie theaters. it is the monopoly. >> it shows who has the power. the mayor who has a the reputation to be tough was rolled over by the union and had to go to court. they are in the monopoly service provider. >> the leeway to have accountability is school choice to empower the parents. >> why is that such a dirty concept? >> it is not. we are for it, clout combat some workers use your tax money to do you did work full time. indexed.
