Wisconsin police union members joined protesters in the rotunda of the capital. Gov. Scott Walker and Republicans in the legislature exempted police officers and firefighters from legislation to end collective bargaining. Walker and fellow Republicans probably concluded going after civil servants who risk their lives everyday is a political loser. The fact that the police union is against the legislation is bad news for Walker.
The union people are special. They deserve their gold-plated plans, lavish benefits and inflated salaries, even when their work performance and productivity is well below the averages in non-union environments. This whole mess is not just about money, it is about the power of the left to impose their will on the public, even when those on the left are the minority. Take away union money, influence and power and the Democrat party will be crippled, and they know it.
