Walker vilified for saving 1500 jobs

Unions, unwilling to give any concessions in the midst of a massive budget shortfall, have shown they would rather let members of their own union get laid off than give up any ounce of power. Gov. Walker signed the anti-collective bargaining law into effect today, thus saving about 1,500 jobs. The left will continue to complain - even though leftist icons like FDR and even the AFL-CIO were once staunch opponents to government unions being able to collectively bargain. Ref. Source 6

Removing collective bargaining rights for public employees in the unions was a very foolish act. I predict this will not last long. Collective bargaining rights shall return in a few years.
