Wisconsin's Walker Says Bargaining Limits to Help Middle Class

[Hannah Bell]

Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker defended a new law curbing most collective-bargaining rights for public employees as “good for the middle class” against a backdrop of boos and chants of “shame” from protesters.

Walker, a 43-year-old Republican, said today he hopes to “inspire others to stand up and make the tough decisions” to control government spending.

1. last time i checked the public workers were middle class and it doesn't sound so good for them.

just saying. here is a question i have. i had heard that this clown came in and gave a raise to someone working for him of $40k. was that him or another governor? if so, how is it that him and these other people can make so much more than public workers and yet the public workers are the bad guys? uggh!

2. The middle class thinks kicking him out of office will be good for the state.

We actually don't give a shit if its good for him- we hope he and his whole family are totally humiliated for the rest of their lives, and that they move to another country to avoid the shame.
