People just do not understand that Walker can not just decide I do not want a union anymore. Therefore will pass a bill as quickly as possible, and break up the union.
The only people against the demonstrations are those who are not in a union. Then they whine and snivel...well I have to pay for my pension, and I do not get sick days, and my pay sucks, and my working conditions suck, so I do not want anybody else to have great pay and benefits.
One joker on this forum is so lost, he really has no clue what is really at stake here.
Did Walker even approach the unions and say, really the state is going broke ( which is a topic for much debate), so I think we should go through arbitration and negotiate a new contract, that may be beneficial to both parties.
No, he just tries to force his ideas down everyone's throat and it came right back at him.
Now Illinois, Ohio, Mich, Iowa unions are all getting involved.
Guess we're all crazy bastards that feel if you have a signed contract, it needs to be honored, and you, can't just say, its to expensive, so I'll just change it.
The argument, well my pay sucks, my benefits suck, so everyone else should suck to, is outright UNAMERICAN!
If you had a union contract you could negotiate a deal, without it, you have nothing, and can be easily replaced by the next avg joe.
So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse, Or I'll lay your soul to waste
