Chris Christie Willing to Sacrifice Career to Take on Teachers' Unions

Love him or hate him there is no defying the fact that New Jersey governor Chris Christie is a polarizing figure inside or even outside of the political arena.  Below is a clip of Christie discussing his willingness to sacrifice his political career in order to take on the state's teacher union.


Full disclosure my sister is an elementary school teach in Ohio.  I'm about being honest with people and saying that the promises made to you under previous administrations were not true.  We need to fix the problems and issues with the system in order to make sure that there is something for you in the future.  Very similar to a post [March 26, 2012 The Democrat Who Took on the Unions] featuring RI treasurer Gina Raimondo.


Regardless of your political stance I wish more government leaders would take a stance such as Christie or Raimondo to do the right thing rather than being focused on being re-elected.
