Will Walker win?

Public employees should not be allowed to unionize at all.

They have a mechanism to demand better contracts, it's called the political system. Our elected representatives should be free to set salaries, and hire and fore at will. The current system allows them to in effect elect their own bosses, and the very people who decide what they get paid.

There is no balance at all, unlike in the private sector where if a union demands too much, they literally put themselves out of work as they cause their employer to fail (look at GM, the only reason this didn't happen was they were bailed out (make no mistake, the bailout was for the UNION (payback), not for GM)).

Most polls associated with the WI teacher issue that suddenly show Walker's approval in decline and more support for the Union are skewed and giving a false picture of their support.The polls showed a split with a slight lead for Walker's plan then all of sudden a CBS poll showed different, NY times followed, like magically overnight the numbers change.They started sampling DEMOCRATS only. Can't find the link right now but also heard O'Reilly talking about it and believe it's true, CBS is in the tank for left wing, obviously.

I believe Walker will ultimately get what he wants, citizens know it is needed.
