Scott Walker lied his way into office. Now he must go. He's just a mouth piece for unscrupulous companies that want to dodge there fair share of taxes on the backs of average people. And have us all live like third world country's. Going backward in pay. Instead of forward. Support Americans buy USA at stores and on line at Made in USA. Demand it

Union filth, its over, you lost. Go back to your bars and cry in your cheap beer.

The rest of us are drinking champagne and enjoying our lower property tax bills.

@OBAMASTINKSLIKEANAPE I bet it feels good to drink champagne you paid for with the tax money you took from these union workers. That welder won't be able to send his kids to college now. Think about that for a while you lay on your fluffy pillow-top mattress getting fatter and stupider.

@katydahling All the welders that I know are at work welding because there is a shortage of skilled welders. That clown is an SEIU stooge who never worked a day in his life.

[katydahling]

@OBAMASTINKSLIKEANAPE Oh, so you know this guy. I'm surprised. I had you pegged for an ignorant name-calling republican who knew nothing about people that actually work for a living.

Do you know why there is a shortage of skilled welders? Because nobody wants to do dangerous work for nothing. Why didn't you become a welder?

Also, I don't believe you'd recognize a welder if he walked up and hit you with his face mask. Don't try and tell me you actually consort with those types.

[OBAMASTINKSLIKEANAPE]

@Dumbbell, Welders don't wear face masks, if they are using an arc welder they wear a helmet that is designed to protect their face and their head. If they are using gas, they were goggles, Welding is not a dangerous occupation unless the person using the device is careless. Depending on skill level, an experienced welder can earn over $100,000 per year, before he pays taxes and contributes to his own 401K plan and health insurance. Unlike the union filth you are defending.

[katydahling]

@brainvomit The technicalities of what their headgear is called is irrelevant. What planet are you on where welders earn $100,000 year? That's higher than the average Wisconsin income.

Is this kind of like the estimated $7.5 million it was supposed to cost to clean up the tape off of the capitol walls? You could probably use a re-education in math and statistics. And using Google.

Listen to that nurse. She lost her job of nearly 40 years and couldn't find another nursing job IN ANY STATE because she's at the top of her pay scale. She said many of the openings stated a preference for 0 to 1 year's experience. THINK ABOUT THAT. THAT'S what this is all about. Repression of wages. Repression of rights. Gov't sucking up to corporations instead of for the people. It's been going on for 30 years.

TIME FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS TO FIGHT BACK!!

[nokiddingable]

YES, THIS IS INSANE!

GO WISCONSIN!

GO AMERICANS!

FRANCE AND EUROPE SUPPORTS YOUR FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS!

@nokiddingable Unfortunately, there's a large fascist movement in America called the "Tea Party" that hates the ideas of workers rights. :(
