It will be the plan that the regents will propose with input from the unions nysut/uft and the Silver led democrats. Therefore, Bloomberg will have to follow the new law for layoffs which I suspect will still cause the great majority of teachers to be laid off by seniority. I only hope that those writing this new law will grant Bloomberg the equal amount of involvement as he allows the communities in New York city to have ZERO involvement!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-35597452810706963032011-03-19T14:02:11.151-04:002011-03-19T14:02:11.151-04:00"If Bloomberg wants to layoff in spite...LET ..."If Bloomberg wants to layoff in spite...LET HIM..."; you obviously are not a newbie.<br /><br />Anon 1:29<br /><br />He will sacrifice the younger teachers just to make a point. If he doesn't lay them off this year he is going to face the same problem next year. If he lays off all the young teachers this year he will get the public on his side and will have a stronger argument for getting rid of LIFO. If he doesn't lay anyone off everyone will know he was bluffing and next year when he claims layoffs again he will be ignored.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-83936167549266835932011-03-19T13:30:50.070-04:002011-03-19T13:30:50.070-04:00If Bloomberg wants to layoff in spite...LET HIM......If Bloomberg wants to layoff in spite...LET HIM...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-33239410064223461932011-03-19T13:29:48.523-04:002011-03-19T13:29:48.523-04:00Well then...he'll be laying off HIS teachers-t...Well then...he'll be laying off HIS teachers-the newbies and newly hired.It'll kill him to do that, and would be an admission of losing to his monstrous sized ego. THEREFORE, his ego won't permit him to layoff his pets. Therefore ,Cuomo is correct in calling his bluff.

No. Will he cut teachers? Absolutely!<br /><br />Bloomberg doesn't care what Cumo says, the Union says, Chaz says, or anyone else says. Cumo is making a mistake by calling Bloomberg's bluff. Bloomberg has an ego the size of NYC and will layoff teachers only so he can say 'I told you I would'Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-34798677873570047612011-03-19T09:56:09.627-04:002011-03-19T09:56:09.627-04:00Cuomo is a chip of the old block and that is a goo...Cuomo is a chip of the old block and that is a good thing for New York. He will compromise and lead a reform agenda with the collaboration of all the constituents having a say at the table. Mario Cuomo was a master at politics and knows the meaning and benefits of the word compromise. Andrew Cuomo will lead in a similar manner as evidence, the way he is going about the last in first out issue being raised daily in the media. He has not given in to the political wind of the moment. A very smart decision which will lead Cuomo to reform pledges that he has based his platform on. He will receive practical reform initiatives with the help of labor as all involved understand the economics realities the state is facing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20674128.post-88901726740935113152011-03-18T21:11:42.230-04:002011-03-18T21:11:42.230-04:00Well said.
