Did you know that the Wisconsin Constitution guarantees the right of collective bargaining?

AND I think that's an excellent point. They shouldn't have collective bargaining and they should pay into their pension plan and health care. Federal employees do that as well.

For one thing, they have had it for fifty years. There are many different unions for different purposes, they aren't all the same thing, they all have different rules. In the case of the Federal workers, I think they were governed by the Taft-Hartley laws.

And FDR was fighting a war and he didn't want collective bargaining, so it got written in, they can't strike either. But the state of Wisconsin has had collective bargaining, and there really isn't a reason to get rid of it. Walker is just trying to break the union, he already got the financial concessions he wanted, now he just wants to tell those American workers they have no right as equals to discuss their future with the State of Wisconsin.

He wants them to just shut up. He may win this round, but the people will lose, and as long as people see this as a case of needing to 'deserve' their rights we will have a declining middle class population. After all, what makes Walker think he deserves to curtail their rights?

Not the budget, because he got what he wanted there.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
