Dear Editor,

I was so tired of the teachers’ strike. In my opinion, they don’t care about the students. If they cannot live on what they make, they are living beyond their means.

What about the poor person who makes minimum wage and if it weren’t for them, you would all have to do things for yourself — like the waitress who waits on you, for one example. There are many others who work for minimum wage and you feel they don’t deserve a raise?

Think of others for a change instead of yourselves.

If there is anyone in this country who is deserving of better income and treatment, it is our veterans.
