More Of Obama's Chicago

First shootings, now a possible teacher's strike in 10 days.  It's not been a good year or two since Rahm Emmanuel took over as mayor in Chicago.
From the Chicago Sun Times: The specter of a teachers strike loomed over Chicago all summer. 

Then came a breakthrough in Chicago Public Schools contract negotiations, in time for year-round schools to start Aug. 13. Another announcement came last week from union and school officials that the rest of the schools would start Tuesday as scheduled.

But Wednesday, parents of CPS students learned the Chicago Teachers Union had filed a 10-day strike notice, meaning teachers could walk the picket line as soon as Sept. 9.

That left moms and dads, already frustrated and bewildered, uncertain about what they would do with their children if the teachers went on strike.

“Catholic school?” one father said outside Charles G. Hammond Elementary School in Little Village.

“You don’t know how long it’s going to take,” Ariel Avina continued, while waiting with his wife and their two young children for their first-grader, Aaliyah, to be dismissed from classes for the day....

But Lynn Watkins of Bronzeville works during the day near O’Hare Airport. Her husband also has a full-time job. She thinks the teachers won’t strike and that the fiery union rhetoric will prove to be just part of negotiations.

But she has considered Chicago Park District programs or child care at the YMCA for her LaSalle Language Academy second-grader just in case.

As a contingency, the board of education has approved $25 million to feed and shelter children if teachers walked out. However, no specifics on where that would be or what hours would be covered have been publicized.

“It’d be helpful if the contingency process was publicly unveiled,” Watkins said. “It’s going to be a madhouse scramble.   http://www.suntimes.com/14806044-761/chicago-parents-fret-what-to-do-if-teachers-go-on-strike.html
Obama disciple, Rahm Emmanuel has the pissed the teacher's union by demanding they work longer hours but not paying them much more to compensate for the extra time.  But the unions also demanded raises of about 30-40%, which of course, was outrageous. 
Maybe the community organizer in the White House can go back to that job when he is removed from office and help with the conflict, except the community will not be able to pay for the solution.
