I feel like unionizing really hasn't done much for teachers. They're paid poorly, the conditions are still poor, they don't seem to get much help.

Yay teacher's union?

Teachers union(s) are some of the highest profile anti union targets in the US as well. There’s also issues on a structural level that leads to poor compensation for teachers vs other government positions.

Really school funding and public education in the US in general is in a very strange place across the board and has been for decades

Maybe I'm missing something but I haven't seen a lot of teacher unions being broken so I'm not sure what you mean.

The results for a given teacher are poor no matter what the reasons, it's a bad "hey get a union" rallying cry IMO.
