You must realize that when someone has their hand in your pocket they don't care about your rights. Does a professional extortionist care about his victims' rights? All he cares about is his meal ticket.
It has always been a cornerstone of Western law that contracts signed under duress are unenforceable, but somehow unions, who always get their contracts through duress, are exempt from this just legal principle. It's only starting to end now because the victim is broke.
However, as we see in Wisconsin, unions are quite content to steal from the corpse. These people are vile, and deserve our utmost contempt.
The scariest scene after Walker's vindication by the taxpayers was the "public" employee (male) who, with tears in his eyes announced, "tonight we have seen the end of democracy... *sniff*".
This thug was literally displaying his insanity --- can't be called anything else. Actually believing that "although all animals are equal, some are more equal than others," and that the pillaging of the public wealth for decades, was their "right."
Actually, 'scary' does not begin to describe it.
Unions, the certain refuge for the thugs, the inept, the incompetent and the parasite, glimpsed the end of the gravy train ------ and lost it.
