Wisconsin is just one example of a government that has no choice but to eliminate the union and start over with new public employees. Union free, with marginal negotiated benefits at cheaper rates, and with cheaper medical insurance for all new employees. Result will be more money in the hands of the employees because there are no union fees being taken out, and no union telling an employer that they can not make changes to insurance companies to take advantage of competitive prices.
When unions step in as they have in Wisconsin and say no to reforms, they cut every members throat. Now when faced with the destruction of the union in the state, they are willing to talk, but its far too late. Elimination of the union in the state is the only way to move forward with a balanced budget and a plan for the economic well being of the future. When a union does this kind of thing to a business, they close up shop and move on. Resulting in unemployment of thousands, in some cases killing a city. Who is to blame? The company that could not staff their business and was forced to leave? Or the union that would not allow their members to report to work or face ejection from the union. The honest answer is the union. The business may have negotiated for a time and been able to do something but the end result would have been more net losses over time because the union would always use such a tactic over their heads. When that fails they turn violent. Businesses leave. Union members left out in the cold, or in some rare cases relocated across the country to a different job.
When it comes to states and federal governments, UNIONS are quite simply communist. For a State can not go out of business, but they MUST have a balanced budget, and must maintain order and ability to prosper for ALL citizens. Unions prevent this possibility. Because the goal of a union is not the prosperity of its members, but the prosperity of union power. Layoffs are acceptable to a union if it means retaining its power over their majority of its members. All they do is increase dues to maintain their budget. A tactic the employer or the government is not allowed to do. So left with the choice of massive layoffs or removal of the union the sate is making the correct choice. Removal of the union. If the workers want to work their jobs are there. If they do not they need to employ union free labor to fill those positions. Only then can a government begin to trim their outrageous expenses and balance a budget to allow for American prosperity once again. Only then can we as a nation start to pull ourselves out of the ever growing debt of ours, and only then can true competition in medical insurance be allowed to prosper and grow opportunities for every American to have healthcare on their own terms and by their own choices for the betterment of their families, and their pursuit of happiness. Unions have their place. But in public services and government positions unions just do not belong. It is the single biggest error in leadership in the past 70 years that such a state was allowed to happen at all.
This case will be repeated all over the nation state to state over and over through the next decade. It will not go away. Only those that stand their ground and only hire union free labor will stand a chance at prosperity solutions. Otherwise we might as well wipe our hands with the Constitution and form a new union under a communist China flag. One nation, under debt, with entitlement, and servitude for all. God save us that fate. May judgment day come first.
