The Democrats, who fled the state to prevent a vote on the measure, said Monday they have no intention of returning until Walker agrees to back off his vow to end collective bargaining rights for unions.The gop has the right hating autoworkers, teachers, nurses, police, firemen, snowplow drivers, and many more. I wonder who will be next just so they can continue their failed policies that allow corporations, wallstreet, and health insurers to walk away with record profits and not holding them accountable for their actions.

No federal gov't employees have collective bargaining. There are unions that federal employees have the option of joining, but the unions only get involved in employee/management disputes in areas other than wages and benefits. The state public union bosses want to take away the choice of the employee to join the union or not, to pay dues or not, and want to eliminate voting by secret ballot. They are not about the interests of "the working class". It's not "all about the children". It is about union thuggery and strong-arm tactics, it's about taking more taxpayer money (including more from the middle class non-public union workers) and it is about political corruption.

I do believe he is coming up to Wisconsin as i write this to walk the picket lines with you. Just kidding. He is going to do the same thing as he did with the tax cuts; fold like a cheap piano accordian to save his dwindling administration.
