Arnold Schwarzenegger’s proposal to privatize pensions of all new state workers, including teachers, into a 401(k)-type system starting in 2007, and his proposal to shift onto local school districts the state’s contribution t...

The aim of this phase of the occupation is to destroy the unions and create the necessary preconditions to ...
