This article brought it up again.  In Wisconsin, every public sector union, EXCEPT for fire fighters and police, are subject to strong limitations on what they can do.  Pretty much, they don't have anything to do, outside of sign whatever contract is handed their way.  Fire fighters and police are exempted?  If unions are that horrible and budget breaking, why wouldn't police and fire fighter unions also fit here?

Is it me, or is this merely a political ploy done, so that the Republican side can get enough votes to stay into power, and not tick off everyone?  Does putting one's life at risk make one more worthy of having the ability to negotiate at a table?  

So, is it merely political for this, or am I missing something?

there is what walker said, and than there is the truth...

Walker gets support of Milwaukee police and firefighter unions
