My initial post was more of a rant than anything, I had just watched some of the protests and was rather annoyed.I was also on my way out the door for the evening so did not have much time to explain the issue.
Public Employees seem to have a sense of entitlement in America these days, esp teachers.The benefits and pay public employees enjoy have proven unsustainable on both the Fed and State level.Governor Walker is simply trying to do his job and get the budget under control by going after the budget busting contributions the union managed to get thanks to the Dems, mostly.
Teachers really want something to be mad about, just wait until the state goes bankrupt and can not contribute anything.They are being selfish and harming students as well as their image.Not sure how Wisconsin law is but would love to see Walker fire some teachers that refuse to return, as Reagan did the air traffic controllers.Time for real change is upon us, hope Governor Walker sticks it out, he is on the right side of this one.
