And in the end it's the kids who suffer.
Who's been teaching them while everyone is out rioting ?
..... nevermind
Thats a whole different story...
To me it's a lot like the Rodney King riots... All those thousands of folks that were mad he got beat up... What's the natural thing to do? Go light some stuff on fire and bust out the windows of hard working businesses. Turn a few cars over and steal some stuff from the local shops....
Wisconsin, stop teaching the kids... Take them to the capitol so they can march around unaware of what they are there for... Refuse to leave the capitol, etc etc etc... Great examples for the kids in that area...
cap
Why stop, explain it to me... You obviosuly have an opinion...
we are totally diff people that will never see eye to eye. its not worth the frustation. i wouldve just deleted it but i dont have that option.
I know you are as strong of a union guy as I am a non union guy, but that's part of life. We agree to disagree.. I like hearing the other sides as well. We can all get along here. Plus if and when we ever meet in real life, we'll have stories! :-D

thats just it though im not a huge union guy, ill prob never work union when i get out of this field, but i can see the benfits of one just like i can see the faults. its hard for me to be one sided on anything. things in the real world are not neat, clean cut, objects we can label. union and non union both have a good side and a bad side. i dont think its right to legislate out a right to balance a budget.
The problem in Wisconsin though is that that "right" is what has been draining the budget for years. Our last Governor (Doyle) has been feeding that fuel for years. This budget proposal was on his desk 8 months before he left office. He LEFT this mess for the next administration, and now people want to hang Walker for it. I don't think its right to expect the taxpayers to pay for these people's "right". I don't expect my neighbors to pay for my pay raise, why should they expect me to pay for theirs??
just because they have the right for collective bargaining doesnt mean they should get everything they want. i think that with some give and take on both sides a good deal could be struck. maybe not.
what is the total burden they present? what is the defecit? i dont really know you live there just asking. just seems like a band aid for a larger problem.
