Dissolved School District Repeatedly Overspent Despite Deficits

Dissolved School District Repeatedly Overspent Despite Deficits [Michigan Capitol Confidential]:
"But the most recent teacher's contract sheds some light on the problems the district had handling its own costs.
In August 2009, Inkster was in its third consecutive year of a growing budget deficit that had escalated from $1.9 million two years previous to $10 million at the end of the 2008-09 fiscal year.
Still, the school board approved a three-year deal with teachers that included some raises as high as 14.2 percent as well as the district paying 100 percent of the health care premiums for teachers and 100 percent of the deductible."

So the teachers and their union are simply innocent victims?
The evil axis of teachers/unions/"owned" school boards continues to destroy the hopes of children and taxpayers.
And now, they expect a bailout?
Gimme a break!
