A Wisconsin Moment

When Public employees Unions rights trump the rights of voting citizen tax payers  who pay the public employees wages and benefits, which on average exceed their own, we have a Wisconsin Moment. Sorry, but this seems wrong based on both math and morals. I suppose the unions can protest (notably closing the schools) but the state senators have no right to abandon their job and the protestors have no right to prevent the functioning of the capital. So much for civility in politics. If the unions win this, I would predict an avalanche of backlash moving forward. The reality is that the public sector has grown way to fat across this country. No one says that there won't be pain, but, remember that the original concept was: take a government paid job for security, not for superior financial reward. Now things are topsy turvy and unsustainable. The private sector is in the middle of a reset by market forces, the public sector will need to be forced to follow by majority rules. Today I stand w/the private sector tax payers using legal, democratic methods to force the public sector to serve not dictate.
