REPUBLICANS "ON MESAAGE" ARE WINNERS AND GOVERNOR SCOTT WALKER'S VICTORY IN WISCONSIN PROVES IT!

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I will probably be blasted, censored, and worse, in some circles, for voicing my unpopular opinion about Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. He was facing the financial impossibility of paying “over-the-top” union perks that were literally bankrupting Wisconsin; common sense dictated that something must be done, but  Governor Walker  faced  the problem head on, and asked the union membership to kick-in about 6% toward their retirement benefits (which happens to be about the same amount the non-union employees contribute toward their retirement benefits. b                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         they What really hurts is that those benefits were fought for and were promised, and it really stihgs that financial wellbeing has taken such a hit that the promised benefits can no longer be paid and see the State of Wisconsin stay solvent at the same time – but these are horrible financial times. Frankly, if the alternative is the bankruptcy of Wisconsin and NO JOBS AT ALL, what choice did Wisconsin Governor Walker have? Folks, an amazing thing happened; many of the rank and file members of Wisconsin Unions said “okay!”

Moreover, something even more astonishing happened, the rank and file members began leaving the union in droves, as soon as their union dues were no longer compulsory. In fact, almost 5o% of rank and file members of some Wisconsin unions quit as soon as they were not forced by laws (supported by union bosses) to pay exorbitant union dues.

Moreover, numerous members of teacher’s unions in Wisconsin are also “jumping ship” seemingly as fast as they can. Draw your own conclusions, but it certainly appears that union members in Wisconsin, at least, had been coerced to pay high union dues, and the actions implemented by Governor Walker have given them a chance to finally break free from union requirements that were doing far more harm than good.

For the first time in decades, Wisconsin can pay its bills and has a statewide unemployment rate of around six point two percent (6.2%); two percent (2%) less than President Obama’s highly suspect national unemployment rate of about eight point two percent (8.2%) (most statisticians declare the really honest unemployment rate exceeds fifteen percent (15%), when you consider all the workers who have completely given-up or accepted positions so beneath their training and ability threshold, that it is almost insulting (though those workers certainly earn high marks for taking whatever jobs are available, instead of trying to languish on unemployment rolls and extended benefits).

God Bless you, Governor Scott Walker, for standing up to the corrupt Democrat machine and winning. With more honest Republican leaders like Scott Walker, we can still save the traditional United States, despite all those who would seeminly jejoice to see America fail. Ironically they are the same folks with their hands stretched-out the furthet looking to get something for nothing.

As a matter of fact, a lot of other states being buried beneath unsustainable union debt (California, New York, and Florida, first and foremost) are watching the results in Wisconsin with keen interest, ready to follow suit – mimicking Governor Walker’s gutsy, America-saving, recipe and maneuvers.
