Wisconsin Republicans have SAVED 12,000+ mostly union jobs, and saved the taxpayers money doing so!!

I wonder if the MSMS will report that?

I just heard the NEA is going to hold a ticker tape for Walker to celebrate all the jobs he saved. No wait. I miss read that. They are going to throw rotten tomatoes. What a bunch of filth.

Unlike Obama, Gov. Walker actually saved jobs, as well as a great deal of taxpayers dollars.

The next time the budget rolls around there will probably be more cuts necessary to keep it balanced. Might not be able to avoid layoffs at the next rodeo showdown.

RE :"Walker said the new powers for state and local government in the bill, which he is expected to sign into law as early as Friday, would save $30 million in the current budget year, which ends June 30. The measure also requires that public servants pay more of their health insurance and pension costs"

This is how you do it, this guy is masterful!

Let’s face it. THe whole point of this Dem charade was to MAKE Walker layoff workers...thus affecting services...and being blamed for it despite the fact that he inherited a giant deficit. THe Union could pretend to care about their brethen who lost jobs while blaming Walker. It would have been a win-win for them...no fiscal restraint, intact collective bargaining...a talking point to slam Walker with.

By taking this bold step, Walker has saved union jobs, saved tax-payer money and acheived some fiscal solvency, and forced the unions to collect their OWN dues.

It is a beautiful thing:)

The Rank and File needs to start looking at the positive aspects of this bill.

-They will no longer have dues witheld from their paychecks. Will be up to them to send it to the union if they feel it is deserved.

-They will get a vote every year on whether or not to keep the union certified.

Both of those things should serve to make a union far more responsive to its members, if they think about it.
