The protests are focused solely on saving public sector a idKonaLink0 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownunionsspana, without which, there is no Democrat Party.That explains why state and federal Democrats worked to rally and bus union thugs to Wisconsin as Democrat legislators fled from the state and their duties as legislators in an effort to shut down public schools and state business. Wisconsin business and education is being held hostage by 14 Democrats on the run in Illinois. And thats why collective bargaining and union thuggery must end for government jobs.Its NOT about fair employmentAccording to 2009 reports from the I.R.S. and Department of Labor, our national median household income rests at 49,777 which of course takes into consideration both single and two income households. Two income households have a median income of 61,265 while single income households have a median income of only 30,444.In contrast, teachers have a much better deal with a national average teacher salary of over 85,000 per year, plus golden benefits that most Americans cant buy for any amount of money.There is a persistent misconception that teachers are not well paid. But a recent survey by the BLS shows that you can earn a very respectable teacher salary. Below is a list of the average annual salaries for teachers in some of the toppaying states. From All Education Report California 128,930 Texas 102,630 New York 74,070 Ohio 52,060 Pennsylvania 46,770 Illinois 67,960 Alaska 67,640 Connecticut 65,790 New Jersey 65,420 Rhode Island 65, 050 Massachusetts 61,470Basically, teachers are the highest paid people in pretty much any community. People can debate whether or not teachers should be the highest paid people in their community, but there can be no debate over the disastrous results of union tenure, collective thuggery and broken budgets that can no longer afford to be held hostage by labor unions.Lets be clear, teachers and other union members are fighting to keep households making 30k to 49k per year, paying a idKonaLink1 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownunion membersspana 150250 in higher wages and salaries, not counting their golden benefits that no other American has. They are desperate to keep their unions because without collective extortion rights, the 7 of American workers who belong to unions will be just like the other 93 of American workers, individuals with individual rights.More than 60 of union workersPrivate sector unions are almost gone in America, as union thugs forced U.S. manufacturing to move abroad in order to remain competitive in the retail market. As a result, over 60 of American a idKonaLink2 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownunion workersspana now hold government jobs or government contracts, ALL of them at direct expense to American taxpayers.Thats why public sector unions are now the biggest political donors in America.In fact, the single largest political donor in America today is the National Education Association. Right the teachers union which is currently holding Wisconsin hostage. The NEA gave over 56 million in 2008 alone, 99 of it to Democrats at both the state and federal level. Thats why Democrats fled from Wisconsin. The NEA is their biggest political donor, without whom, they cannot survive.Heres who received that money once again explaining why these same individuals will turn a state budget debate in Wisconsin into statetostate civil war between union thugs and American taxpayers.Under political heavy hitters we find the following groupsAct Blue The organization assists Democratic candidates and committees of all ideological persuasion, helping moderates and liberals alike. Through mid2010, it has helped funnel more than 134 millionand countingAmerican Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees made up of 3,500 local unions representing 1.4 million members who work in public service and health care.All but ONE of the Top Twenty political juggernauts in America today are Democrat Party juggernauts, most of them labor unions, including the labor union for lawyers and judges and the a idKonaLink3 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownlabor unionspana for the press and media in America.There is simply no getting around the fact that the international socialist a idKonaLink4 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownlabor movementspana has a death grip on American politics, both at the federal and state level, even though they are the highest paid 7 of American workers today. The problem is that they are completely committed to extorting all they can from taxpayers, they will use thuggery to do it, including violence and they have a scorched earth belief system. If we wont let them win, they will make sure that there is nothing for taxpayers to win by burning everything to the ground.In their corner are public sector unions, lawyers and judges, communications workers the press and media, the courts and international socialists, not to mention almost every Democrat in America.On our side are the millions of taxpayers stuck with the tab, and a few good leaders like Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin.Beyond AmericaDozens of nations around the globe have fiscally hit rock bottom over the last few years, as their government budgets and economies were destroyed by public sector union contracts and unfunded union pension funds forcing law makers to choose between saving their counties and propping up labor unions.The Middle East is in total meltdown, led by international labor unions and socialist community organizers from here and Europe, with union thugs causing violence in the streets of numerous Arab nations, which will result in radical Islamic control of those fallen governments looking forward.If governors want to save their states, they have NO CHOICE but to bust their a idKonaLink5 hrefhttpcapitolhillcoffeehouse.comindex.phparticle946span stylecolor brownpublic sector unionspana contracts and the labor movement that has pushed nation after nation, state after state towards the financial abyss.When the Air Traffic Controllers tried to extort excessive contracts from President Ronald Reagan by shutting down the air traffic industry in 1981, Reagan gave them fair warning and then fired 11,000 air traffic controllers and put those flights back in the air.Governor Walker and others will soon have no choice but to do the same. Our states and taxpayers simply cannot be held hostage by socialist labor union thuggery.End Union Bid Only TooThousands of good paying jobs were lost the minute Democrats took office in 2008, as Obama amp Co. reinstated union bid only contracting putting thousands of nonunion trucking companies and construction contractors out of business with the stroke of a pen, via one of his first Executive Orders.Democrats policy of protecting only union workers, 7 of the work force, at the expense of nonunion workers, contractors and taxpayers MUST END as well.For America to compete in a free market, the labor market must be liberated from the death grip of international socialist labor unions and at this stage, for states to avoid insolvency and ultimately bankruptcy, they have no choice but to bust the public sector unions, end union bid only contracting with taxpayer revenue and eventually make every state a Right to Work state again.The rights and interests of the people at large trump the selfish international socialist interests of labor unions and their bought and paid for Democrats.Nonunion workers and taxpayers must unite behind leaders willing to lead that charge, like Governor Walker in Wisconsin and Governor Kasich of Ohio.Union thugs and international socialists who make up todays Democrat Party will likely make this a violent battle. But thuggery and extortion cannot be allowed to stand anymore in the land of the free and home of the brave.State legislators must support these leaders by reasserting their states rights. They can follow Arizona Senator Lori Klein and her SB 1433 State Nullification Act. At least 28 states are working on nullifying unconstitutional federal abuses of power.Its time for the American people to stand with these leaders and put an end to the destruction of American freedom and liberty at the hands of international socialists and their labor unions.Its time to bust the unions!
