Well, not all of the Left

Wonder when the democrats are going to call for the heads of the other 26 states who don't have collective bargaining.
There is so much disinformation out there it is pathetic and the unions are spouting it. If you compare Walker's plan with other states you might be surprised how good Wisconsin has it.

Josh Barro in the Corner has a good related article and the Washington Post link article is a excellent eye-opener.

First, despite the howls coming from the left, Wisconsin’s new policies on public-employee relations will not be especially unusual. Only 26 states have laws that grant collective-bargaining privileges to substantially all public employees. Twelve have laws that give collective bargaining to some workers, and twelve have no statewide collective-bargaining law at all, though some municipalities may grant bargaining rights in those states.


Interesting that other democratic run legislators are not about to let collective bargaining ruin their plans for a fiscal budget.
Comes down to what the real agenda is.
