LOL...My daughter is a teacher, I have a sister who is a teacher. For all practical purposes collective bargaining does not exist in Wisconsin for public employees. That is why they demostrated for months on end, why the Demo Rats in the state senate fled to Illinois, and most importantly why a LOT of unions are decertifying because the union can’t pull the dues out of the members paychecks anymore.
Cain’s answer gives no indication he understands the issue, especially the nuance of what has happened with the public employees in this state.
“Cain’s answer gives no indication he understands the issue, especially the nuance of what has happened with the public employees in this state.”
Nonsense. He said that he’s fully in support of Scott Walker. If you’d rather stab someone in the back for supporting you, that’s your deal.
The “nuanced” understanding of this is that collective bargaining rights have been limited, not eliminated.
The non-nuanced understanding is that “for all practical purposes collective bargaining does not exist in Wisconsin for public employees.”
Both approaches (the nuanced and the non-nuanced) have their place, but I don’t see why you are insisting that Cain had to use the unions’ perspective as his starting point, else be found ignorant.
We disagree.
