Scal, the school committee was elected by the voters in Warwick. If the members are too "pro teacher" because the teachers supported some of them, then the public is either okay with that or at least indifferent. Look at East Greenwich, the public cleaned out the "reformer" council (and town manager), because they didnt like how things were being handled. Our public seems to generally support our city employees and tends to reelect elected members who approve their contracts the way they are written. Believe me, if the public wanted to go the other way, the force would be unstoppable. But they dont, the public likes the way things are more or less.

Put another way, I dont think the last election in Warwick was hacked by the Kremlin! The public knows the costs, as most homes are owner occupied and they get a tax bill. And they voted. I'm confident that our democracy is healthy and has worked as intended.
