I read this and surmise that (a) they aren't trying, or (b) they initiate dismissal proceedings and that teachers have some reason to quite before the proceedings are concluded. Which is neither here nor there in the context of your larger argument.

Apropos of the prison guards, do you blame the prison guards for organizing effectively and throwing their weight around?

If you ran a football league (call it the "NFL") and there was one football team (the "Colts," say) that was dominant, winning most of its games by convincing margins, would you fault that team for excelling at what it does, or would you conclude that the league should establish different rules to promote parity?
