Contrary to what you are claiming, the "poor white trash" of America and Wisconsin seems to be the unionized workers who are not sufficiently educated to compete in today's job market. And they seem only through strongarm tactics to be able to keep their jobs, or through a corrupt president's assistance.

i dont believe in public unions at all. I am in a private union and dont care if private unions exist or not. public unions should never have existed in the 1st place.
Public unions were always the danger lurking in the woodpile of state and city budgets.

Seems just that no one noticed before now.

so what, if they dont like going without a taxpayer funded union which should not even exist in the 1st place, then they should go out into the private sector and get a real job.
