In Wisconsin, the phrase “Gov. Walker wants to destroy the unions” keeps being used, and I wonder what the unions are so afraid of. The proposal from Governor Walker is that the state will no longer deduct union dues from employee paychecks and give the payment to the unions, and that employees will be free to not pay union dues.
Could it be the unions are worried that their “membership” will not write them a check every two weeks and send in those dues voluntarily? If the teachers weren’t paying $1000 a year in union dues, they would have more money to pay extra for their health insurance and into their retirement. What a concept!
I’m off to work, because I don’t have a fake sick note in my pocket and because I have to prove that I am actually worthy of my paycheck.

You’ve hit the nail on the head that is exactly what the unions are afraid of.
Funny how the main stream (liberal) media can’t figure that out.
