The teachers’ strike

The teachers have carried out a month of strike since they called to undefined strike the last October. But why are they on strike? Many people ask themselves.
Teachers are on strike because the government refuses to pay the historical debt. This historical debt initiated in 1981 when the state transfers the schools education to the municipalities a year after that the military regime announced an especial bone to compensate teachers for the low salaries, and that will be paid in 4 installments the subsequent years.
According to the teachers the debt reaches nine thousand million dollars and the government does not recognize the debt because it says that they are no public workers anymore after they are depending on the municipalities.

I believe this is a complicated situation which the government has to analyze deeply, but I disagree with the long strike because many students have lost weeks of knowledge, they need to be educated and students need to know that when we want to achieve something, going on strike or making hunger strike is not the way. I am going to be a teacher, I am not going to teach English only, but I am going to teach how to be a person, therefore I propose that teachers should fight maybe for higher salaries but not making strikes and they should forget the historical debt.
