Extreme Liberal, Patrick Coolican Makes A Fool Of Himself Again

Patrick Coolican, the Neanderthal extreme liberal of the Las Vegas Sun is bitching and moaning about the lack of staff in the College of Southern Nevada's Occupational Therapy and Therapy Assistant (COTA) program and the possible elimination of the programs:
There are 122 job openings for occupational therapists in Southern Nevada and another 78 openings for occupational therapy assistants.
People trained in the field help the disabled or people undergoing physical or cognitive changes become active and independent. Patients often include disabled children and older adults. We have many people in these categories and not enough therapists to treat them.
More frustrating than that, the state’s only accredited occupational therapy assistant program, at the College of Southern Nevada, is on probation from an accreditation board and in danger of going extinct.  http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/feb/23/college-program-might-go-away-and-it-help-people-e/?hpop
So, what is the reason for the possible loss of the program?  Here is what Coolican, (the Neanderthal) says: Given the college’s $123 million operating budget, I wondered why CSN can’t come up with an extra $10,000 or $20,000 for each position to recruit qualified candidates. Spokeswoman K.C. Brekken explained the problem in an email: “Unfortunately, it’s not that simple. CSN salaries are set by a salary schedule established for all of the community college employees through the Nevada System of Higher Education.”
And what Coolican refused to write is that these salaries are the result of unions representing the teachers/professors.  Now why would the extreme liberal, Patrick (the Neanderthal) Coolican refuse to write this?  Well maybe he thinks unions do no wrong?
what a pathetic excuse of a writer, Coolican, the Neanderthal, is.
