Teachers, fire-fighters and police are NOT government employees.
Just like legislators, they are employees of us, the taxpayers.
We, the taxpayers, thus have a say in their employment.
The people of Wisconsin elected a Republican govenor and legislature to represent them in cutting back state expenses. Wisconsin, along with many other states, is going broke.
And the answer to governmental budgetary woes isn't raising taxes.
So, do the public sector union employees (of Wisconsin and the 49 other states) agree to start paying more of their benefits, or do they just get fired from their jobs?
It's their call. But they don't have a right to shirk their jobs to their employees, We, the People.
