This shows how ignorant of the situation you are. You have no idea what is going on in WI.
Even FDR said that public unions should not have the right to collectively bargain. Why? Because it gives them MORE rights than the average citizen. What happens when you give a group special rights?
Well in WI guess what %the public unions have paid of the pensions that have been paid out in the last 9 or 10 years? A whopping 0.5%! Guess how much of their health care premiums have they paid in the last 9 or 10 years? A whooping 5.0%! Oh those poor bastards!
Do you think leaving the lower and middle classes with a greater tax burden (everyone pays property tax, sales tax ect) and leaving the children they are teaching with 100s of billions of unfunded liability good or bad?
