With a salary of tens of thousands a month, for whom, who is Yaffa Ben David fighting?

With such a monthly salary and exorbitant conditions, the secretary general of the Teachers' Union cannot be the real representative of those who pay their monthly salary from the membership fees set aside from their meager salary.

Yaffa Ben David.

Even if you believe the numbers she presented as her "real" salary, even that is inflated - certainly compared to teachers' salaries (Photo: Flash 90, Jonathan Zindel)

According to reports in various media outlets in recent days, Yaffa Ben-David's salary has reached ninety thousand shekels. Between 5-10 teachers and an annual budget of NIS 486 million for the body it heads, so the question is: Does the teachers' union and its leader really represent the interests of educators?

Today, we have finally discovered the truth. Of the chairman of the Teachers' Union, Yaffa Ben-David, shakes the new editions, puts parents in a state of anxiety and the Ministry of Finance on the defensive.

And here, today, after years of shouting we have discovered that the king is naked.

The data revealed on the various news sites suggest (in a strong and clear voice) that this organization - the Teachers' Union and also the one who heads it - Yaffa Ben David, it is time to replace, and Yaffa one hour earlier.

The chairman of the Teachers 'Union, who is currently negotiating stubbornly with the Treasury over the teachers' salary agreement, demands transparency from him, claims that he is lying, cheating and presenting a distorted reality, but in the end we discovered that reality is distorted precisely because of it: Can it take care of their interests?

As more details become clear, it turns out that the teachers were never the cause of the strike - the personal interest of the teachers' union and its leader, probably yes

. With quite a few benefits, a chauffeur and members of several boards of directors of companies related to the body she heads) of the chairman of the Teachers' Union, Yaffa Ben-David, the main reason for the ongoing provocation and strike is beginning to become clear.

The answer to the question of whether Yaffa Ben-David can represent the interest of the teachers is also affected by her salary.

But even that is just a symptom of a broader problem, the "representative problem."

Each representative, even when acting without extraneous considerations, and after consultation, still acts at his personal discretion.

In the past it was not possible to discover the collective will in communities, so we had to make do with representatives.

But who are those representatives who represent the interests of teachers

in negotiations with the Treasury? Are they the ones who have, ostensibly, become rich on the backs of the weak in whose name they are supposed to operate?

Instead of the teachers fighting for a high and respectable salary, they pay for years, for example, the driver's salary and Yaffa Ben - David's vehicle.

We will mention again that the cost of hiring a cousin is roughly equivalent to the salaries of 10 teachers - and he is ironically paid to her just from them, from the membership fees they set aside from their modest salary.

Undoubtedly, the teachers' struggle is right and justified but the way it is done does not contribute to them, on the contrary.

They pay for it, expensively.

It is time to make a fundamental change in the way teachers are represented.

There are now available alternatives, such as autonomous decentralized organizations, that address through binary questionnaires (yes or no) to all members of the organization on any topic.

On this basis, "representatives" were established that offer an alternative model based on technology, which solves the problem of the representative and decision-making by the individual.

Once we discover the collective will of teachers, no one will argue with us: everyone offers and everyone votes.

We invite all organizations and employees in the fields of education and social assistance to join us in the association.
