Wisconsin Union Busting
What is happening in Wisconsin is a ruthless attempt to bust the unions. Whether you like unions or not, Americans should be very concerned that collective bargaining can be legislated to death. The work rules that we enjoy today are a direct result of the hard-fought fight at the turn of the 19th century. Many workers died for these rights so we can have 40 hour work weeks, do not force children to work, are paid for overtime, and have safe working conditions. Who will keep a check on governement and corporations now? Certainly not our congress or courts. We are becoming a "Walmart" nation of cheap labor, low minimum wage, no healthcare, and HUGE corporate profits.
