Correct me if I'm wrong...but haven't public unions already made concessions? I don't see thats how thats a problem when they are willing to deal. the real issue is is that republicans don't even wanna do that..they just want to get rind of the unions altogether.
again as i said, If these bills seemed like anything more than just union busting id be more receptive. Instead however, governors are giving large handouts to corporations while asking the common man to foot the bill for economic recovery. They want to take away public union bargaining rights but think its great to give huge tax breaks to corporations. even though its pretty wishy washy wither the whole trickle down idea works.
