Who said "where free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost"?

We are Sheep until it's too late to respond: On May 2nd, 1933, the day after Labor Day, Nazi groups occupied union halls and labor leaders were arrested. Trade Unions were outlawed by Adolf Hitler, while collective bargaining and the right to strike was abolished. This was the beginning of a consolidation of power by the fascist regime which systematically wiped out all opposition groups, starting with unions, liberals, socialists, and communists using Himmler’s state police.

Fast forward to America today, particularly Wisconsin. Governor Walker and the Republican/Tea Party members of the state legislature are attempting to pass a bill that would not only severely punish public unions (with exception for the police, fire, and state trooper unions that supported his campaign), but it would effectively end 50 years to the right of these workers to collectively bargain. http://newsjunkiepost.com/2011/02/20/may...

Couldn't agree more with Reagan but "Grown up",you didn't include legislators who has life time benefits and pensions as a reward for 2 terms in public service. This includes Republicans. I don't see them giving theirs up,even in Wisconsin.

Walker should have limited unions powers,not stripped them. Now his state is going to have to pay for the lawsuits and will lose what he took by force.

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.
