Fire every last one of these deadbeats. Replace them with illegal aliens from Mexico. Mexicans will work twice as hard as these union bums for 1/3 of the wages and none of the benefits. As an added bonus, the mexicans will not bellyache all day like the greedy union members. Problem solved! It's Win-Win, BABY!
@IP0Monsturd your retarded and regular people dont have 40 rommates to split the bills with and greedy i think not we would just like to take care of are families and illegal aliens dont pay back into the economy they send the money back home fucking shit up worse so if you think about your a dumb ass and you should be wearing a head gear
@thatbeast21yr I was in the I.A.M. for twelve years. My union "brothers & sisters" were some of the laziest and dumbest people I have ever met. Meanwhile, the mexicans who trim my trees do the job cheaply and with smiles on their faces with no stupid fucking complaints. Yeah, you and the rest of the union stooges can and should be replaced.
A CEO (call him David Koch), a talk show host (call him Glenn Beck), & a talk show darling (call her Sarah Palin), are sitting at a table with a unionized public employee, & a teabagger. On the table there are 12 cookies. Koch reaches across, takes 11 cookies, gives 2 to Beck & 2 to Palin before getting up & leaving the restaurant (without paying his bill). Beck & Palin then look at the teabagger & say, "Watch out for that union guy, he’ll leave you with nothing but crumbs."
fire them fire all the teachers if they cant teach fire them these people think thier true hard working people in these unions bullshit ive worked on oil rigs and waste treatment plants i have sores and callices all over my hands from construction these union people just crave money and just like these union fucks and if you not union then they try to fuck you ive had way too many bullshit run ins with these people GET RID OF THESE UNIONS THEY DO NOT HELP THE HARD WORKING PEOPLE
I would like to see regulation for the rich to pay their fair share in taxes and that this does not happen that all the Republican Governors that are being influenced by it corporations and to union busting for state employees and the state police of each state should be thrown in to mental institutions because they are psychotic and harmful to the rest of society they care more about their own greedy self-worth then our nation.
The people who are opposed for the rich getting a 3% tax increase are the same people who want teachers who make only a $50,000 a year salary to take over 10% in cuts their salary.
@MasterAdam100 Dear union member; U are no different than the rest of America. We all are sacrificing something that we feel we have earned. Yet you wish to take more from the American middle class nonunion worker. UR the person middle class Americans are opposed to, that is why this movement has swept the nation and why these Governors were elected in November.
Middle Class Union members are hypocrites. 2 million federal employees survive (and some on ONLY 50k) without bargaining rights.
@ladylordess Only 7% of American workers are in Unions and since the Union numbers have been dropping over the decades, the economy has gotten worse. If Unions were stronger, there would be a better incentive to keep jobs in America and not outsource to China and other foreign countries. I'm not part a Union but I want to be one day if I get the chance. Corporations, like governments, shouldn't get too big and should be monitored.
@MasterAdam100 10-12% are union members. The union doesn't create anything. It certainly doesn't create jobs. It never will. They only generate revenue via dues for their political arm the DNC. We do not need a public union, FDR and Carter agree. 2million federal employees manage to get by without bargaining rights. There is a good reason for it. I don't want a politician sitting across a table "negotiating" with a union leader over my taxes, making unsustainable promises. Monopoly?
@ladylordess But Unions protect workers. Who's going to speak for you when your employers try to trample your rights and benefits? Sometimes you have to gather with others to defend it. Now there may be some things that I am against pertaining to Unions like them threatening non Union members to join but that is few and far between. Unions should exist at a basic level to protect workers rights. That is all. Do not think that I endorse anything added over the years by power minded individuals.
@ladylordess My grandpa was leader of his mill union and if not for the efforts of the union, their wages would have been cut and part of their medical benefits would have been scrapped. Why? Because the mill wanted more profits and hoped that the workers would work for less. If companies could make people work for free, like slaves, they would. More money in their pockets after all. Profits should not come before people.
@MasterAdam100 Union mill is not a public union. We are talking about the employer who is US, you, me our government. They aren't there to profit. They are also are not there to promise our money in an unsustainable way, just to line the pockets of a political party. Middle class Americans who are nonunion should not be asked to sacrifice for the elitist middle class union.
@ladylordess Whatever kind of union you are talking about, I am against as well. But you need to understand that I am arguing for the fundamental idea of a Union as a right for American workers. A right that should be protected by law. Profits go hand in hand with big business lining the pockets of politicians so the politicians can vote for laws that protect big business from monitoring and regulations. So that they can further distance themselves from the law that me and you follow.
@ladylordess Would you, as an American, or more importantly, as a person with common sense, set aside the political differences that me and you share for just on moment? Understand that there is common ground between a Capitalist and a Socialist because we both believe in Libertarian principles. I know I do but I don't know about you.
@MasterAdam100 There is always common ground. You just don't find it on youtube too often. We can't only stay or speak with like people. We must hear other ideas, or we do not grow. However, the UAW has created much bitterness with what they did to the country in the way the GM deal was managed. They trashed the bondholders, (who wants to invest in America now?), they stole from the taxpayer and had a massive transfer of wealth to foreign interests and the UAW.
@ladylordess That I find reprehensible, definitely but I wouldn't let it define the basic definition of a union. Many things have to change in this country before we can advance. I find getting rid of collective bargaining won't solve any deficit problems and it only turns the people against the powers that be even more. The right should exist regardless of how some people choose to use it. Just like how I find it a right to own a gun even though some people may abuse that right.
@MasterAdam100 What the UAW did is just the icing on the cake. The last straw if you will. It turned the middle class non-union members sour on all unions. The thing is that collective bargaining will help control the budget. Carter knew that you can't have a politician and a union leader "negotiate" with tax payer money as they are both on the same side. The unions have done themselves in with greed at the members, and all Americans expense. U do know that there R still laws that will protect?
I hope there is an investigation of the fleeing Senators to find out who funded their lodging and meals while they were hiding out. I would bet that some, if not all had their expenses paid for by the unions. That would be illegal!
the people of Wisconsin should send letters to the Governor supporting the union workers Like in ( Miracle on 34 Street when all the Christmas letter's were dumped on to the judges desk. .) Maybe the Governor would finally understand that his people don't want the law passed and that his is working for the citizen of Wisconsin not himself .
WAKE UP!!! if this law pass the none union worker is next. Its already happing in Minnesota Factories using the economy and the health bill to lay large groups of their employees off. Then telling them to go and sign up at a workforce and we will hire you back! Of course they now are classified as part time workers . No benefits and a lot less pay because at least $3.00 or more will be going to the workforce that now employs them. I know hundreds of people this has happen too.
@ladylordess More like run away when your employees (Teachers, cops, firefighters, snowplow drivers etc.) get their rights taken away, and in order to protect their rights, dont vote on the bill that destroys them.
@roflzroflz11256 Drama Queen Alert!!! The bill regards benefits not wages. Less of the population are union members, rendering those who are in a union the "entitled" class. How is it that 2 million federal workers manage very well without a union, but state workers must have one??? It is coming down to the makers and the takers. We need more makers than we do takers if we ever want to get out of this mess.
@ladylordess Unions are "entitled" the right to assemble by the U. S. Constitution. Those government employees are also consumers of goods and services by the private sector AND they also pay the taxes that help fund their own salaries. Without a market for good and services (takers), the "makers" will make nothing.
@Asenueh The greed of their NOT paying any portion of their own pension or HC has shown the greed. Why is it that the federal employee struggles to survive without bargaining rights? The makers will always succeed, without the makers, who create the jobs and opportunity, the takers don't have anything other than a whine.
@ladylordess Their pension payments are part of their total compensation package as a trade-off instead of getting the higher private sector wages. A larger percentage of private sector employees used to get pensions before corporate greed started this race to the bottom we are experiencing. Also, anyone who gets wages or salaries in exchange for providing a good or service, public or private, is a "maker." Public sector employees WORK for a living.
@Asenueh The private sector wage is 22% less than the public sector wage. Pensions were all but wiped out in the late 70's. FACT: The WI bill will pass. You neglected to mention why the Federal worker doesn't need bargaining rights. I don't wish to have my politician bargaining with a union member with my tax dollars. There is a 50 year history as to why that is a bad idea. If it weren't a monopoly, you would have a leg to stand on.
@ladylordess I don't see any sources to back your statistics and I have seen numbers that differ from the ones you present, so I have no reason to believe you.
Taxes are the user fees you pay the government for the public services you enjoy. That's what government is for. Government employees have the right to collectively bargain to ensure they have safe and humane working conditions. How mean-spirited can you be to want to begrudge someone human rights?!?!?!
@Asenueh That is because you listen to the news sources that give you the propaganda of your choosing. You need to broaden your horizons of information. You know what will prove the numbers to you? When the bill passes and governors across the country make these same moves of what is best for America. Federal employees do NOT have bargaining rights. This is a fact, thanks to Jimmy Carter. Look it up. How evil r u to expect the middle class to pay for the elitist unions greed at this time.
@ladylordess I don't go to news sources for statistics, when I can get them free from bias and cherry-picking from government websites. After all, my tax dollars paid for them.
Also, those "evil" people you are referring to are middle class Americans who WORK for a living, providing services for ingrates such as yourself.
If Jimmy Carter was the one who ended federal collective bargaining rights, then there would not have been an air traffic controllers' union for Reagan to bust.
@Asenueh Government websites are not bias free. Our tax dollars pay for education, yet students still come out of the school system without knowing how to read. We do not always receive what we pay for when it comes to tax dollars, which includes the stimulus bill. In1978, Jimmy Carter, backed by the D congress passed the Civil Service Reform Act. It severely prescribes the issues over which employees could bargain as well as prohibited compulsory union support. We do not need a Public union.
@ladylordess Both my parents were public employees and Dad belonged to a union and Mom started one in her workplace. Our family wasn't rich and they gave an honest day's work for an honest day's pay serving the public. I continued their legacy of servign the public by joining the army and took an oath to support and defend their rights as citizens to assemble and organize. Whatever names you and other right-wing trolls call public employees, I just have two; Mom and Dad.
@Asenueh My Mother and Father were the people who paid the taxes that your parents lived off of. I don't appreciate a politician sitting across from a union thug negotiating with what will happen with my tax dollars. This is an unholy union. If it weren't a monopoly, then you could have a leg to stand on. Since 2 million Feds manage to struggle by without bargaining rights, the PU's will also.
@ladylordess Public sector union jobs are REAL jobs that provide services and whose pay goes right back into the private sector economy. What part of that don't you understand? Public sector jobs are part of the economy, just like public sector employees are part of your neighborhood. It's a shame that some taxpayers, like yourself, as employers to these fine people, treat them like so much dog crap you step in. The right to collectively organize to redress grievances is a HUMAN right!
@Asenueh What came first the chicken or the egg? You cannot expect the middle class nonunion to pay for "more" for the middle class union, especially when they are losing jobs and income. That makes union members elitist. State workers do not need a union. What part of that do you not understand. If 2 million federal employees manage, so will the state worker, just like the rest of America. We still have a judicial system, so there are no grievances that cannot be addressed.
@ladylordess The public sector is as old as civilization itself.
My parent's jobs (corrections officer, library worker) had no private secor equivalent. Nor should they. I would rather have my tax dollars pay hardworking Americans who plow their pay back into the local economy than some shareholder who will hoard it God-know-where.
The economic collapse wasn't the public sector's fault. The revenue shortfalls were the fault of the finanical sector's mismanagement.
@Asenueh "The public sector is as old as civilization itself."
And the public union is relatively a new phenomenon, which has rendered itself useless in regards to the public sector. U may wish to thank the UAW for that, as it does cross over.
Shareholders invest their own money, rather than the taxpayers money. I do not believe in any of the bailouts, especially GM's where the shareholder and the taxpayer were hurt. The UAW and foreign interests are the ones who made out there.
@ladylordess If public sector unions had no use, no one would go to the effort to establish them, the way my mother did. She wasn't greedy, nor did she have an adversarial relationship with her supervisors. It's just more expedient to talk to a group collectively than accost each one.
The taxpayers own 27% of GM stock, so the treasury gets the dividend to fund the loan. The banks, on the other hand, privatized the profits and socialized the losses.
@Asenueh Was your mother a child laborer of the government? NO!
GM?? They wiped out the bondholders illegally. It was a massive transfer of wealth to foreign interests and the UAW at the taxpayer and bondholders expense. The taxpayer owns stock in a crappy company that still owes them money and is giving "profit" sharing to the uaw workers. PROFIT?
UR parroting your mothers paycheck. 2million federal workers do not have bargaining rights. Thanks carter! how do they ever get by??
@ladylordess So now you're insulting my mother and still parroting GOP/Tea Party talking points... The more you comment, the more hateful you look. The longer the protests in Wisconsin go on, the more people will wake up to what unions have given them as workers and what the GOP corporate overlords seek to take away and create a serf class.
If you don't like what I say, go Galt and see how long you can live without the collectivism that make civilization possible.
@Asenueh Is it insulting to ask if your mother was a child laborer? did the government abuse her that she needed a public union? Carter & FDR knew it would be a bad idea, AND IT HAS BEEN!!!! THAT IS INSULTING YOUR MOTHER? The middle class nonunion Americans have already taken a haircut and the longer this goes on the greedier the middle class elitist union members look. Time for them to take a haircut, they are not anymore "special" than the nonunion Americans.
@ladylordess It is insulting, in that when you insult public sector unions, you are insulting mothers, fathers, sisters, brother, friends and neighbors. They aren't rich. What is insulting is that you would begrudge fellow Americans the fruit of their struggles when the blame for our current economic woes lie NOT with them, but by greedy and unscrupulous corporatists who should be doing the sacrificing for the problems they create. Demand for goods creates jobs, NOT tax breaks for the rich.
@Asenueh It is even more insulting that at this time the public sector unions feel the need to take advantage of those who are not in a union So the middle class and poor nonunion (who greatly out number the union) American can pay MORE for the elitist PU member. Highly offensive. The middle class and poor have been through enough, THEY are not RICH, yet the PU wants MORE?!!! UNSCRUPULOUS indeed!! Plus a union leader wants to sit across a table to "negotiate" with their tax dollars? Unholy!!
@ladylordess My parents were BOTH public employees and it took BOTH parents working to even be middle class. There is nothing elitist about being middle class and organizing to make your voice count for more. The rich are GETTING TAX CUTS on the backs of teachers and firefighters! Those who work for a living are told to bend over and take it while the rich squeeze them ever more. Public employees didn't create the economic meltdown, yet they are having to pay for it just like everyone else.
@ladylordess Even states WITHOUT public sector unions are expreriencing budget shortfalls, so it's inaccurate to lay the blame at the feet of the unions. Getting rid of collective bargaining doesn't have any budgetary impact whatsoever. Union members across the board have agreed to take pay cuts all throughout this recession, which is probably something Fox and Newsmax neglect to mention.
Let the unscrupulous hedge fund managers and bankers make the sacrifice and call it indemnity.
@Asenueh ALL THE MORE REASON to focus on cutting spending. Unsustainable promises need to be reeled in, in all areas and states. No one is laying the entire blame, they are focusing on preventing further poverty and creating jobs. It is only your political view that doesn't allow you to see that collective bargaining doesn't have any budgetary impact. Union members ONLY agreed after they saw the writing on the wall.
I do agree with you on hedge funds, who have flown below the radar.
@ladylordess It wasn't a "promoise;" it was a CONTRACT. A contract is LEGAL document. Before Walker had even THOUGHT about breaking a contract, he should NOT have created the revenue shortfall but giving tax breaks. He took revenue from the state like robber. Tax breaks for the wealthy do NOT create jobs, since such wealth is concentrated among relatively few people who just don't create the same consumer demand as money circulating among the vast numbers of those who work for a living.
@Asenueh A contract that was unsustainable which was created by an unholy union. A monopoly.
You are incorrect as to the tax breaks. IF you WANT jobs created you MUST do SOMETHING to entice businesses back into WI. If you continue your vilifying of the rich, you will only force them to take their funds else where, and the jobs along with them. You NEED taxpayers or you DO NOT have a job in the PU. The PU really does stink.
@ladylordess No job was created because the rich were given money. Jobs are created because there is a demand for products and services from wage-earning consumers. Making the rich pay their fair share for the intellectual property and banking protections, as well as infrastructure, emergency response and public education they receive from the government, would do more to reduce the deficit in WI than other other single thing. WALKER created most of the deficit problem, not the public worker.
@ladylordess I'm talking about Adam Smith, the man who literally wrote the book on capitalism, when he said that workers should be paid enough to be able to be consumers. Without consumers, there is no demand. Without demand for goods, no one has any reason to hire no matter how much money they are given. What would they hire someone for, exactly, to sit around? The economy moves when money CIRCULATES. The rich don't circulate as much as workers. It's all about the numbers.
Hey! I found a few of those Democratic sentors. Type in Ray Stevens In the Mood, and you will find three of them. The Unions to the citizens: Hey, we've got a great idea! Why don't you pay for part of your health and retirement while at the same time paying for all ours! Yeah! And here's another idea: Why don't you just sit your kids in empty classrooms every day while we hang out at the capital! Your kids can always end up a year behind! It won't kill them! Thank you for understanding.
This bill does not go far enough. Stripping ganster rights from public servants is a good start but we need to ban unions everywhere. Their day is done and it should be illegal for them to use their mafia powers to scam money out of both employees and their employers.
If this little stunt in Madison shows us anything is that the corrupt unions have to GO.
This is a clasic example of the Unions Promoting scamming the state out of millions rather than sucking in their belt like everyone else has too. The greedy union would rather have the people pay them extravigant salaries to maintain their lifesyle. The unions, The teachers and the Democrat loosers don't care about doing the fiscally right thing but rather spending the People into bankruptsy. Thank you all you crooks.
Great Idea , Let's call out sick and screw the children.... They're getting screwed anyway, whats the difference...The partys over , that's the Democratic Party that is. Those moochers and greedy bastards want it all or nothing. Fire them all for walking out on the students. Let's see who has a pair of balls here. That's the Deocratic way , run and hide like fags. Thank God we live in a free country and I can voice my opinion.. Fire them all . We need to start over again.
Making you sign away your rights in commercial field is ridiculous already in this modern world, legislate your rights away is not forgive-able. What else can they cook up then after that?
@williejenkins666 your post was a waste of time because everyone here knows the people are not protesting the increases to paying into their retirement or health care. they are protesting the union busting which is ANTI-Democratic, Anti-American, pro-dictatorial and pro-fascist.
Go back to posting on Fox News forums house slave.
Walker has been outted by BOTH Republicans and Democrats in the budget office.
Wis was set to have a SURPLUS of over 100 million. Walker gave 2 tax breaks to corporations and instituted a conservative health care tax cut and NOW the state is facing a deficit...one that HE CAUSED by giving tax breaks only to the wealthy.
This is class warfare. The unions need to unite and go on STRIKE right NOW and thankfully private unions are helping at the protests already.
I just want to make note of the huge number of grammatical and spelling errors I have seen browsing through the comments on this video. There are good and bad teachers out there (some who deserve to be paid more and others who shouldn't be allowed to step foot in a school), but there's a lot we can learn by ourselves and that includes how to spell pronouns. This seems like it has nothing to do with it, but i just can't take anyone seriously who reverts to slander and spells "they" as "thay"
`*The Citizens United vs. the Federal Eleciton Commission ruling declared that corporations are people & can thus spend unlimited amounts of money to influence election results. _Until we have a constitutional amendment to declare that CORPORATIONS ARE NOT NATURAL PERSONS, WINCONSINITES SHOULD USE THIS RULING AGAINST THE REPUBLICAN$. If corporations are people, THEN UNIONS ARE PEOPLE TOO. AS PEOPLE, UNIONS HAVE A RIGHT TO EXIST. SINCE REAGAN, REPUBLICAN$ HAVE BEEN A THREAT TO OUR DEMOCRACY.
@Searching4Truth1 Where do you search for your truth? Because you utterly fail. I only checked on of your bullshit numbers, the per capita income figure, and yep, complete bullshit. Multiple sources, from "google" as you suggested. I already know teachers don't make six figures but honestly I think I'll spend my 60 seconds insulting you rather than looking up what I already know. You sir, are a retard.
Maybe the teachers should be paid the same as we pay our soldiers,about $22,000 and give them the same health care and pensions,or maybe they would like all the farmers to join a union so no one can buy food????????
Teachers are useing are kids ,come on parents,wake up,we should have all private schools,the goc;t can't run anything without going bankrupt
Democrats propose a health care bill, tack on universal health care which is a Republican idea AND 217 Republican ammendments and are accused of backdoor dealing and not compromising.
Republicans create a bill actually behind closed doors and publically state there is no compromise on it, nothing will be changed period no matter how many protest...while still saying Obama wont listen to the people...
In the current budget year, federal tax receipts will be equal to 14.8 percent of the Gross Domestic Product, or GDP, the lowest level since Harry Truman was president
I don't think these Progressives get it. You can shout 'Republican are Nazis' till your lungs bleed and it won't hurt the people who tossed you out in 2010. The guys that kicked you to the curb in 2010 were the ones with a 'U' under their voter registration.
unions are for people who have no skill and cant keep a job. they are for lazy liberals who want everything for nothing. im tired of paying you people. its my taxed income that allows you to call in sick and still get payed for it. i have no sympathy for you leeches
i am really disappointed of Tea Party. i thought they were fighting oppression of the American people, not the politician leaders. We should stand up against the government, not to be picky for a politician
Public employees are any workers like yourselves. Job is a job because they work to get paid. Nobody is evil except for Wisconsin governor Walker who gave a tax cut $130 million to his interest group like health insurance corporation and others. i asked myself : Where is it the job creation in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker should be ashamed of eliminating collective bargaining rights. This is the birthplace of Union Labor where an individual has somebody to protect their right as a worker. Wisconsin is the place where it started the minimum wage and unemployment compensation. Gov. Walker must resign his job and let somebody who care about Wisconsin people
I would like to see the taxpayers negotiate with local unions, and not some elected official that has no $kin of his own in the game. Maybe then we would stop the Golden Retirement Parachutes that have people retiring with 60-80% of their salary.
And just who in the private sector has a pension anymore?
Middle class and hard working need union labor represent and protect their rights as workers. We must complain because Wisconsin governor Walker give tax break $130 million to his interest group like health insurance corporation and others.
You are right. Everybody should make everybody should sacrifice but why the richest people don't pay taxes. We bailout those people since Wall street meltdown. Their reward is to have tax cut where they are receiving $600 billions. i asked myself where it is the job creation where these people must create.
Public employees unions are a sham, a conflict of interest designed to serve the Democrat party exclusively. It's a Stalinist tactic to bully the taxpayer, promote the Democrat party and raise funds for same. The way the Democrat party is behaving is Stalinist. Bullies, disagree with them and they attack you personally, silence all opposition any way you can and by force if necessary. Even FDR knew this!

The era of austerity is here whether you like it or not. These poeple are lucky to have jobs. Everyone in the private sector has pay into their own healthcare and retirements and so should public sector employees. By running away and hiding in a hotel, these Democrats are subverting democracy. Elections have consequence. If they don't like what the Governor wants to do, well better luck next election. Change is finally coming. Liberal fantasy land and keynesian voo doo are coming to an end.

Fire all the scum sucking teacher and force the kids to show up to school as expected. Get substitutes and pay them twice the salary of regular teacher in the short term and charge the union to full amount.
Also, give all teacher 24 hours to report back to school or dont bother showing up ever again and say bye to your pension. You get nothing and screw you.
All unions should be banned. People should stand on their own and get paid based on performance and not collective bargaining.
@nytech04 Based on your comment, I am guessing you probably work a fairly paid job. Assuming you have healthcare - imagine if you didn't have collective bargaining rights with healthcare. Your office probably pools people and bargains with the Insurance company. Teachers are doing us a service,and have one of the lowest paid jobs in the country among people with graduate degrees. Please stop making ignorant and unrealistic comments.
@acms2000 Teacher can quit and find a better job just like I am free to quit my job and work where i get the salary and benefits that i want. Its a free country and people should get paid based on their performance.
If you want to make $ then you don't become a teacher. No one forced them to become teachers. Plus when was the last time you heard a teacher becoming a millionaire? Never happened and never will so they should not complain about low pay.
@nytech04 This is true, but since most of our schools are public (as mandated by the constitution) the teachers by default have to work for the government. We need public workers as much as we need them. Wonder why the 1960s and 50s produced the most successful students - Because of amazing teachers. Women back then had few options to work, compared to today. Consequently, we had the most educated and enthusiastic teachers with the brightest students. Teachers need a pay raise, not a cut.
@nytech04 You should be banned from America, you disgusting hateful right-wing SLOB. This is the first in a WAVE of Solid United Fight for Americans Saving the Middle Class, Wages, Quality of Life, and against YOU Conservative Fascist Low-Life Scum! I can't believe your bashing teacher and their low wages against this White Farmer Redneck Fascist Born Again Confederate Pig like Scott Walker! F-YOU!
@limbaughisgay Remind me how the american voters expressed themselves in Nov? Oh yes the biggest change in congress in a generation. Voters have spoken and my guess most were not union member, so you and your blood sucking union scum can screw yourselves.
You will lose in wisconsin, in oho and in each state where republicans were voted into power. Non union tax payers (i guess you think they are all rich right?) have spoken and said no more $ for govt to waste.
of course. You have easy life rather making a stand of people who need our support. Poor people doesn't have the advantage to pay somebody to protect our rights with a lot money.
@limbaughisgay If teachers think there so under paid, maybe thay should try a job that isn't a government job and see how much thay can make, my guess is thay will be very disapointed
I suspect most people poating are paying around 30-35% of income in taxes
Is there anyone who believes it's fair that the man who last year made $5 BILLON DOLLARS (that's more than the combined salaries in a town of 100,000 people) will pay only about 15%?
@DillonDee1 No its not fair in fact that's a lot for a billionaire they will lot of times don't pay taxes they put their money in a trust, and act like their doing us all huge favor.
The voters of Wisconsin plan to come down to the Capital building tomorrow. It will be at least 650,000 people to support the Governor and the legislature they elected to cut government spending and balance the budget.
The Democrats need to stand up and Unite for the Middle Class and stop these Pro Weathy, Pro Corporation, Pro Communist, ANTI MIDDLE CLASS, Embarrassing NEO-Fascist Republican Fagits! These are BUSH Republicans and they're the Enemy of the America's Middle Class!
@limbaughisgay Geez, you guys are all drinking fromthe same cup of koolaid. The middle class is union member according to all of you. It is as if you have been baptised and anointed in middle class oil.
@TAMARLANE: Lady, sorry I can't have a rational debate with you. People like you believe that President Obama caused this economic mess, when in reality it was BUSH's Economic Policy! I'm for Worker Unionization of ALL Hourly Employees for Public Traded Corporations and Government Workers! GO WISCONSIN! GO MIDDLE CLASS! GO AMERICA! UNITE!
@TAMARLANE are you giving people shit again? Just what is it that you're looking for for this country, $2 bucks an hour so the corporate elite can continue taking home their 50 million a year paychecks?
@HemiHead66 How many people are makiing $2 per hour? How many are making $50 million? What, you don't have any idea? Why would you make such wild claims without any clue about what you are talking about.?
@TAMARLANE Well, the Republicans said they were out to scrap the minimum wage. And do I have to show you some of the financial reports for the companies I have stock in? And these are smaller companies. When you get into the Cisco's, forget about it, they make mega-bucks. Hey, do you what the deal is with these Teachers as far as pensions and healthcare, are they been getting some kind of really sweet deal, or something?
@TAMARLANE Well that's a genius comeback. "No, YOU are! So there!"
I guess you proved you weren't s simpleton with that brilliant retort. Though I wasn't even talking to you, but hey, you stepped in and dropped some great wit to defend your fellow tard, so great job I guess.

@ladylordess Only 7% of American workers are in Unions and since the Union numbers have been dropping over the decades, the economy has gotten worse. If Unions were stronger, there would be a better incentive to keep jobs in America and not outsource to China and other foreign countries. I'm not part a Union but I want to be one day if I get the chance. Corporations, like governments, shouldn't get too big and should be monitored.
MasterAdam100 1 year ago
@MasterAdam100 10-12% are union members. The union doesn't create anything. It certainly doesn't create jobs. It never will. They only generate revenue via dues for their political arm the DNC. We do not need a public union, FDR and Carter agree. 2million federal employees manage to get by without bargaining rights. There is a good reason for it. I don't want a politician sitting across a table "negotiating" with a union leader over my taxes, making unsustainable promises. Monopoly?

@ladylordess But Unions protect workers. Who's going to speak for you when your employers try to trample your rights and benefits? Sometimes you have to gather with others to defend it. Now there may be some things that I am against pertaining to Unions like them threatening non Union members to join but that is few and far between. Unions should exist at a basic level to protect workers rights. That is all. Do not think that I endorse anything added over the years by power minded individuals.
MasterAdam100 1 year ago
@ladylordess My grandpa was leader of his mill union and if not for the efforts of the union, their wages would have been cut and part of their medical benefits would have been scrapped. Why? Because the mill wanted more profits and hoped that the workers would work for less. If companies could make people work for free, like slaves, they would. More money in their pockets after all. Profits should not come before people.
MasterAdam100 1 year ago
@MasterAdam100 Union mill is not a public union. We are talking about the employer who is US, you, me our government. They aren't there to profit. They are also are not there to promise our money in an unsustainable way, just to line the pockets of a political party. Middle class Americans who are nonunion should not be asked to sacrifice for the elitist middle class union.
ladylordess 1 year ago
@ladylordess Whatever kind of union you are talking about, I am against as well. But you need to understand that I am arguing for the fundamental idea of a Union as a right for American workers. A right that should be protected by law. Profits go hand in hand with big business lining the pockets of politicians so the politicians can vote for laws that protect big business from monitoring and regulations. So that they can further distance themselves from the law that me and you follow.

@MasterAdam100 There is always common ground. You just don't find it on youtube too often. We can't only stay or speak with like people. We must hear other ideas, or we do not grow. However, the UAW has created much bitterness with what they did to the country in the way the GM deal was managed. They trashed the bondholders, (who wants to invest in America now?), they stole from the taxpayer and had a massive transfer of wealth to foreign interests and the UAW.
ladylordess 1 year ago
@ladylordess That I find reprehensible, definitely but I wouldn't let it define the basic definition of a union. Many things have to change in this country before we can advance. I find getting rid of collective bargaining won't solve any deficit problems and it only turns the people against the powers that be even more. The right should exist regardless of how some people choose to use it. Just like how I find it a right to own a gun even though some people may abuse that right.
MasterAdam100 1 year ago
@MasterAdam100 What the UAW did is just the icing on the cake. The last straw if you will. It turned the middle class non-union members sour on all unions. The thing is that collective bargaining will help control the budget. Carter knew that you can't have a politician and a union leader "negotiate" with tax payer money as they are both on the same side. The unions have done themselves in with greed at the members, and all Americans expense. U do know that there R still laws that will protect?

@ladylordess Unions are "entitled" the right to assemble by the U. S. Constitution.

ladylordess 1 year ago
@ladylordess Their pension payments are part of their total compensation package as a trade-off instead of getting the higher private sector wages. A larger percentage of private sector employees used to get pensions before corporate greed started this race to the bottom we are experiencing. Also, anyone who gets wages or salaries in exchange for providing a good or service, public or private, is a "maker." Public sector employees WORK for a living.

@ladylordess I don't go to news sources for statistics, when I can get them free from bias and cherry-picking from government websites. After all, my tax dollars paid for them.

It severely prescribes the issues over which employees could bargain as well as prohibited compulsory union support. We do not need a Public union.

And the public union is relatively a new phenomenon, which has rendered itself useless in regards to the public sector. U may wish to thank the UAW for that, as it does cross over.

@ladylordess Even states WITHOUT public sector unions are expreriencing budget shortfalls, so it's inaccurate to lay the blame at the feet of the unions.

@ladylordess It wasn't a "promoise;" it was a CONTRACT. A contract is LEGAL document. Before Walker had even THOUGHT about breaking a contract, he should NOT have created the revenue shortfall but giving tax breaks. He took revenue from the state like robber. Tax breaks for the wealthy do NOT create jobs, since such wealth is concentrated among relatively few people who just don't create the same consumer demand as money circulating among the vast numbers of those who work for a living.

@Asenueh A contract that was unsustainable which was created by an unholy union. A monopoly.
You are incorrect as to the tax breaks. IF you WANT jobs created you MUST do SOMETHING to entice businesses back into WI. If you continue your vilifying of the rich, you will only force them to take their funds else where, and the jobs along with them. You NEED taxpayers or you DO NOT have a job in the PU. The PU really does stink.

@ladylordess No job was created because the rich were given money. Jobs are created because there is a demand for products and services from wage-earning consumers. Making the rich pay their fair share for the intellectual property and banking protections, as well as infrastructure, emergency response and public education they receive from the government, would do more to reduce the deficit in WI than other other single thing. WALKER created most of the deficit problem, not the public worker.

The economy moves when money CIRCULATES. The rich don't circulate as much as workers. It's all about the numbers.

Republicans have been tried and found lacking.
Democrats propose a health care bill, tack on universal health care which is a Republican idea AND 217 Republican ammendments and are accused of backdoor dealing and not compromising.
Republicans create a bill actually behind closed doors and publically state there is no compromise on it, nothing will be changed period no matter how many protest...while still saying Obama wont listen to the people...
They wont be happy til civil war breaks.

Teachers’ work 10 months a year! Pay them for what they do baby sit! Let’s give them $3.00 an hour . That would be $19.50 a day (7:45 to 3:00 PM
that equals 6 1/2 hours). No Vacation pay or planning time!
Each parent should pay $19.50 a day for these teachers to baby-sit their children.
Now how many do they teach in day…maybe 30? So that’s $19.50 x 30 = $585.00 a day. I am not going to pay them for any vacations.
LET’S SEE…. That’s $585 X 180= $105,300 peryear

Public employees are any workers like yourselves. Job is a job because they work to get paid. Nobody is evil except for Wisconsin governor Walker who gave a tax cut $130 million to his interest group like health insurance corporation and others. i asked myself : Where is it the job creation in Wisconsin?
FredyAntonio27 1 year ago
Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker should be ashamed of eliminating collective bargaining rights. This is the birthplace of Union Labor where an individual has somebody to protect their right as a worker. Wisconsin is the place where it started the minimum wage and unemployment compensation. Gov. Walker must resign his job and let somebody who care about Wisconsin people
FredyAntonio27 1 year ago
Wisconsin average teacher makes roughly 85k a year between wages and benefits, national average income is roughly 65k between wages and benefits.
Why are the employers making less than the employee? This is definately not the way it works in the private sector.

It's a Stalinist tactic to bully the taxpayer, promote the Democrat party and raise funds for same. The way the Democrat party is behaving is Stalinist.

Fire all the scum sucking teacher and force the kids to show up to school as expected. Get substitutes and pay them twice the salary of regular teacher in the short term and charge the union to full amount.
Also, give all teacher 24 hours to report back to school or dont bother showing up ever again and say bye to your pension. You get nothing and screw you.
All unions should be banned. People should stand on their own and get paid based on performance and not collective bargaining.

@nytech04 Based on your comment, I am guessing you probably work a fairly paid job. Assuming you have healthcare - imagine if you didn't have collective bargaining rights with healthcare. Your office probably pools people and bargains with the Insurance company. Teachers are doing us a service,and have one of the lowest paid jobs in the country among people with graduate degrees. Please stop making ignorant and unrealistic comments.

If you want to make $ then you don't become a teacher. No one forced them to become teachers. Plus when was the last time you heard a teacher becoming a millionaire? Never happened and never will so they should not complain about low pay.
nytech04 1 year ago
@nytech04 This is true, but since most of our schools are public (as mandated by the constitution) the teachers by default have to work for the government. We need public workers as much as we need them. Wonder why the 1960s and 50s produced the most successful students - Because of amazing teachers. Women back then had few options to work, compared to today. Consequently, we had the most educated and enthusiastic teachers with the brightest students. Teachers need a pay raise, not a cut.
