Basically, it’s typical union thug tactics. Wisconsin teachers thought they should be immune from having to pay towards their retirement like all other Wisconsin residents. Walker made them pay a little bit, and they couldn’t stand it. Touchy subject with one of my sisters as her husband is a retired, Wisc. public school teacher. He retired at 55 after thirty years teaching. They’re both strong libs.
Those WI teachers also thought they deserved free passes (time off with pay) during all of the Walker protests. I remember (watching on TV) them all lining up to get their FAKE Dr’s notes. They were busted, but probably got the paid, regardless.
