Wisconsin the US Greece

While driving to school today I heard on the radio about the events in Wisconsin. After few minutes I had to double check if I am hearing right, all of it sounded like something I have heard before, but it wasn't in the States, but Greece. Oh gosh did we fall low enough to imitate the Unionized workers from Greece in their outrage over Government trying to save their country?? 40% of teachers in Wisconsin called in sick as a protest, because the Governor, whom they called all the names in the book has been trying to balance the budget and avoid layoffs.
Oh right it is the people standing up against the private sector workers and for the unionized workers who do not want to be left powerless. 40% of teachers, who are paid by the taxpayer have lied to their employers about being sick, caused schools to be closed in Madison Wisconsin, so they could protest. How does it teach our children, better what does it teach our children? The leftist Academia wasn't better. universities were protesting too. against what? Their hard working parents who are trying to put them thru school?
I say go for it Governor. The Democrats have run away from the State (what a bunch of selfish, useless politicians) in order to avoid the vote for a measure, that would not allow the unions bargain for benefits and pensions but for wages only.
I say get rid of the Unions, why is it that the public sector has pensions? We in private sector have to pay taxes for the public sector so they can have salaries for the mediocre job they are doing, have pensions and healthcare benefits exempt from Obamacare regulations. We also have to scrape and save to put monies away for our old age. 401K or IRA's, nothing is given to us. Where is the justice in that? I have such a little respect for Unions. I am worried, that this country is turning into Europe. Now we only need to close our eyes on the threat of Islam and we are good to go.
