But for 52,000 other youngsters enrolled in public schools, it was just another day of learning. They attend charter schools, of which the city has 118.

  4. Collateral damage

    If the Chicago Teachers Union strike ends before this column appears, the damage has been done and can't be repaired. To the union's reputation. And especially to the children, who have been taught the meaning of greed.

The logic of steady advancement in the conditions for workers was, well, for a long time, just logical. Not anymore.
