What will we do when the dust settles?

With the elections coming up and hopefully the ousting of some terrible politicians...I am left with a question.  What are we going to do when everyone stops fighting, when the dust settles?  We will still have vastly underfunded schools, struggling students from all demographics and a large group of Americans who have lost confidence and respect for education.  I will admit that I have been going crazy since last spring.  Everything about my career has been debated, threatened, changed and even ridiculed.  This really pisses me off at times and early on I had an easy target, some call him governor, but not for much longer.  Now though as I trudge through my Master's Degree and step back into higher education and as I hear of more ways that my pay, benefits and even working conditions will undergo more changes....I am left with questions.....Is there anyone out there who is interested in fixing the problem and not just winning a battle?  Is there anyone out there who is more concerned with a solution and not just "being right"?  If so I hope they stand up and make themselves heard, start to make a difference and put an end to this ridiculous power tug-of-war!  In the meantime, I am going off the radar.....no more Republican or Democrat....no more Union or not.....I'm just going to teach, collaborate with my great team, work hard to finish my Master's, coach a great baseball team with some goods guys......and at the end of the day....say a little prayer that sometime soon we can get back to making sure that the kiddos are winning, no matter how their parents vote, what tax bracket their family is in, or even where they were born..... Seems simple, but at times I really feel like I am staring up the mountain.....  What do you think?
