Walker believes the blue collar workers in Wisconsin are getting paid too well. With this legislation workers in Wisconsin can expect Alabama and Mississippi-level benefits and wages. Walker believes if this passes Wisconsin can be as successful and prosperous as those two red states..
He got a seasonal job with UPS and worked a few weeks in December..temporary job.
Guess what ? His paycheck was $0. Why was it $0 ? Well the union demanded their dues.
A temporary Christmas worker for a few weeks and the union took all his money.
Do you think that is fair ?
Anecdotal fallacy Using a personal or isolated example in place of compelling evidence.
Wisconsin will become the 25th State to have Right to Work Laws. People can still join Unions if they choose, but they won't be forced into doing so. Unions brought this on themselves with over-reach.
It's been amazing to see what Wisconsin and Scott Walker have accomplished. The main thing was breaking the strangle-hold of the Public Sector Unions. Public Sector Unions have become destructive.

Scott Walker is running Wisconsin into the ground.
For those that support unions....why do you support this?

Hundreds of New York City public school teachers accused of offenses ranging from insubordination to sexual misconduct are being paid their full salaries to sit around all day playing Scrabble, surfing the Internet or just staring at the wall, if that's what they want to do.
The Department of Education pays about 1,500 teachers for time they spend on union activities — and pays other teachers to replace them in the classroom.

Actually the teachers are better off today because they were able to shop around for health insurance and got cheaper rates than what was previously forced on them by the union.
It's good to see that freedom is coming to the people of Wisconsin. They won't be required to join a mob and pay protection money just to work for an employer.
The market price in capitalism is slavery. You have capitalists and slave labor.
And union members aren't slaves to the union when they are forced to join the union and forced to give up a portion of their income in dues if they want that particular job? This is simply furor from unions losing their ability to force people to join and Democrats losing donation money.
Democrats always talk about being for an individual's rights, until it comes to unions, at which point you don't have the right to choose to be in a union or not.
