I don't understand this: Why do you think they have taxpayer dollars? Since when do taxpayers give money directly to unions? What is money-laundering about it? Union members pay their due, but sorry, that is no longer "taxpayer money" the moment it goes into the paycheck. |
Teachers are paid by taxpayer dollars. When they pay their union dues they are paying with taxpayer dollars unless they have some sort of side business. When the union then turns around and buys their business agents new cars and sends them on retreat to HI with the Badger football team, they are bought and sent with taxpayer dollars.
BTW You seem upset Walker is exempting Police and Fire unions because you claim they supported him yet seem fine with Obama exempting unions subscribing to the Obamasocialistcare Plan who supported him?
Walker is doing what he promised to do and for a politician that is so refreshing. Great job Governor and On Wisconsin! BTW This is the same guy that sent back the unwanted Federal Rail money feeling the funds would be better used paying down debt. If only we had a Scott Walker for each state.
Today winter has returned to WI, we'll see how tough the teachers are.
With the teachers planning to sit out another week it is obvious THEIR benefits and contracts trump the children and like the former Fed Flight Controllers they need to all go and be replaced. Planes didn't fall out of the sky as predicted and I'm sure the students will be fine as well. Education is broke right now so we should have no fear fixing it. When teachers fail to teach 50% of students how to read and do basic math in 12 years time they deserve nothing!
