Better they know nothing than something when it's against what they stand for. I find the KNEA interesting because they're a teachers union but if you look at teacher pay and benefits, they've done virtually nothing for them. They got over $1 billion in increased spending a couple of years ago and rather than give it to the teachers, they created new programs and expanded old ones rather than pay more in salaries or benefits. I keep wondering when teachers are going to wake up and realize the KNEA has no interest in helping them. I would advise your friend to not answer the questionaire at all.
