Effective immediately, The Governor shall order that all Republican Representatives and Senators will be provided WI State Police bodyguards. All funds used to pay these police officers standard and overtime pay will be paid from the salaries of the AWOL Senators and their office budgets. Any and all transportation, fuel, food, beverages or lodging purchased using WI state-issued credit cards will not be reimbursed to the AWOL Senators or their staffs for the period of this illegal attempt to hamstring and delay necessary budget reforms.
You’re off to a good start. Unfortunately, as we know, some liberal judge will declare all of this to be unconstitutional and strike it all down.
After all, it doesn’t matter what the people who are PAYING for all of this want, it’s just what the left wants . . . . . . and we KNOW what the left wants.
Many, if not most of the actual state workers know this and are at work.
Teachers are all employees of local districts, which are facing terrible budget problems due to the failure of the democrats to take any action to solve the fundamental problems of school funding and teacher compensation in the state.
For example, I looked up the wife of a friend on a teacher salary database. She has been getting 12% raises each of the past two years. $6500 raise from 09 to 10 and a similar raise from 08 to 09. During that time, I had my pay cut, then was laid off and spent months looking for a new job.
Her husband is on facebook complaining about all the sacrifices teachers like his wife have had to make. It’s all I can do to not tell him to ESAD.
