I agree with this completely. So why is it then that the Police and Firefighters unions are exempt from this law? Shouldn't we be advocating that the Wisconsin law apply to all government unions in Wisconsin? In every state, for that matter? If it is necessary for the teachers and all other government workers to take a hit to help Wisconsin through its fiscal crisis then all government employees, unionized and un-unionized should be making the same contribution.
I like the more generic message..."government unions" should be an oxymoron. You're either government (with us) or union (by definition bargaining 'against us' taxpayers). You can't be on both sides of the table! Until government union becomes ILLEGAL, this country will remain a bankruptcy waiting to happen. Just because Soros likes something doesn't mean it 's good! /s
