Once again, you accused me of something, I asked you to prove it, and you've failed. You seem unable to own up to the fact that you attacked me and owe me an apology for the unwarranted attack.
Attacked you of what? Being a shill for the union official fat cats so they can keep their $50-68 million per year in health insurance overcharges?
Well now... that was frantic hail Mary pass into oblivious bloviationville.
Nope. This has been a KNOWN issue since 2000 (see report linked below). Dem Governor Doyle did nothing about it, and let the union official fat cats overcharge WI taxpayers by a minimum of $400 million* over his eight year administration.
As a WI taxpayer, I knew about all of this. Many of you didn't, but shot your mouths off anyway.
*The $400 million minimum is the correct minimum amount ($50 million x 8 years). My previous post had an error on the total cost of the union overcharges to the WI taxpayers.

Ignoring that you generally would not recognize an "issue" if it bit you on the face... this "issue" has apparently nothing to do with the thread or the arguments being made within it.
PS... got anything fresher than more than a decade ago?

It has everything to do with the thread topic. The WI Dems and unions plotted to stall the progress of the WI budget repair bill so that they could ink contract deals before the new limits took effect. They tried to preserve the union's ability to keep overcharging the WI taxpayers.

Yes. The WPRI's 2005 estimate is $100 million per year in union health insurance company overcharges.
In the spirit of concern and cooperation, Walker uses a lower$68 million per year figure for the overcharges to make sure teachers would be obtaining similar coverage in the WI State insurance plan.
Yes, it does. Read the thread title: Government e-mails reveal Dems/unions possibly colluded in plot to stall budget repair bill in WI
