Victory for the overburdened taxpayer.

Defeat for the greedy and childish.

In the light of the Walker victory, this thread started in Mar of 2011 seems even more significant. The lower income private workers are done with this tax and give to public employees. It is not the nasty greedy GOP, but the 67% of the people calling themselves "Blue Collar" workers than supported Walker and his efforts to bring reality into public employee compensation and benefits. There is hope we may avoid becoming Greece.

Yeah. We can become like Honduras instead.

Kinda hard to resolve words like "greedy" and "childish" when you're talking about the Koch Bros...

Got to break those nasty teacher's unions. They have the gall to teach stuff like Civics and history. If these kids actually learn how govt works they might vote all of the chickenhawks and teabaggers out.

Have you seen "Waiting for Superman"?

Saw the flick, was not impressed. Cognitive dissonance was expressed in a film. It's kind of like the screamers leading up to the invasion of Iraq. Richard Clark resigned over that and part of the reason schools are strapped for cash and the VA hospital system is in such poor shape is that your "fiscally conservative" pals spent the country so deep into debt that it will take 20 years to repair the damage. Find me one Repub that can balance a budget or win a war.
