One Little Secret... Suprised?

I was listening to the news last night and there was one line really caught my attention, not only mine but everyone's in the room. That with the passing and signing of the new legislation from Scott Walker and the Republicans, the "dues" of the Unions will not be mandatory! Wow, no wonder they were pushing as hard as they could to block this bull... I mean Bill, they lose the control of who pays and who doesn't. This was not brought out when the Unions were trying to browbeat the rest of the nation into believing that we here in WI were breaking the backs of working people and keeping them slaves. ( which I never understood; slave being by definition nonpayed workers, who derive no benefit from their labors). No wonder the union was determined that the govt, was trying to destroy America as we know it, now it all makes sense. The Unions were losing their cash cow. Now they would actually have to pay for the new Lexus every year, instead of running it through the Union, the high priced "seminars" and "learning junkets" to Vegas and other spots of "high interest" would have to be curtailed because the members were not supporting them any more; what a shame.
Well Shame on the Unions and the minions who follow them blindly. Do they demand that the Bosses keep track of what they spend? No, do the members demand that the Bosses be transparent on what the dues go for? NO. So tell me how does it feel to be one of the Real Life workers now? Are you angry? Upset? Distressed? Good, go tell your union Rep that now you have to drop out of the union because supporting two families is one to many.

and the beat goes on and on and on....

well it is still happening in Madison, but at least it's not the top story in the national news.. Its sad tho that we can create chaos out of simple work simply by acting like children. I have to admit that I'm embarrassed when I go out of state and they ask where I'm from. I don't want to get into a political discussion or argument about what is going on, and how I FEEL about it. I am embarrassed that my state goverment can't be adult enough to do their jobs and that is what I feel. Both sides need to take a "chill pill" as my kids would say and do what needs to be done, not run and hide and not play police tag. Maybe someday we will be able to say we have transended this but until then, get over yourselves,be the adult and get on with your jobs, both sides.
