The fact the State will no longer collect union dues and make the teachers write out checks is the Trojan Horse in all this.
Remember how we all knew once Obamacare passed that it would be hard to repeal, since once the sheeple got a “free” benefit, they’d never give it up?
Well wait until next month when every teacher in Wisconsin has a $100 raise in their paycheck because the union dues weren’t taken out. That will have an impact.
Walker and the GOP knew that if they were going to reduce employee benefits, they could do it on the back of these union dues and the employee wouldn’t have any less take home pay. Pay $100 more a month for your pension and healthcare. Save $100 a month in Union dues that aren’t collected off the top.
Let’s see how this plays out.
