It would be a lot more than a little pay cut for American workers to be on a par with their foreign counterparts.
Then perhaps it would be wise to stop government from artificially jacking up labor costs wouldnt it?

Hey here's a Revolutionary idea...How bout Teachers & Welfare Recipients say Thank You to Taxpayers once and awhile? I know that seems shocking but how bout it? Teachers & Welfare Recipients seem to only want to complain and demand more. Well,most Americans are getting sick of their Entitlement attitude. A Thank You once and awhile really would be nice.

You may win the battle in Wisconsin and lose the war
Republicans are firmly establishing themselves as anti-worker in a time when Amercans overwhelmingly support the right to collective bargaining
Even Chris Christie supports collective bargaining
Since when have unions ever done work?
It took quite a bit of work for unions to get the 40 hour workweek, child labor laws, workplace safety and hundreds of other worker rights that we now take for granted
Couldn't have done it without collective bargaining
Weakening Teacher Unions is vital to any possible change & improvement in our Publc Schools. Teacher Unions just have too much power at this point. They don't care about the kids anymore. They only care about themselves and getting Democrats elected. In fact there shouldn't be any Unions in our Government. It's just a very bad combination. Conservatives haven't quite won yet in Madison. They're getting there though. Much Kudos are well deserved for Governor Scott Walker. He's making the tough Adult decisions that have to be made. I wish him nothing but the best of luck.
Guess what?
You get what you pay for. Weaken teacher pay and benefits and you get poorer quality teachers
Don't blame the unions

You're right! The government should do whatever it can to make sure that workers make as little as possible.

RW....you and I agree on many, many things, but on this one I will have to respectfully disagree. What percentage of American belong to unions? Around 12% now, if I recall correctly. Those of us forced to employ union workers and see NO better worker than a non-union person despise unions and also despise union supporters. As an Obama voter, I am squarely on Walker's side on this one and I believe the Democrats would be fools to make this an issue in 2012.
fair enough..
I however believe the American worker is under attack as he finds it harder and harder to maintain his former standard of living.
Unions or the threat of forming a union is all that a worker has to ensure that his rights are not violated

That is an ignorant remark Avatar. Surprised to see that come from someone with intellect, who was prolly schooled by Union teachers. Sigh,...That ol Retarded short term memory syndrome has sure took it's toll on the reightys.
How is it ignorant? Unions do less work than non-union and demand more pay for less productivity. Heck, some members get paid to do jack squat. You want verification? Just open your eyes.No sense arguing with you, since you are wrong. Here is a link (There are plenty more!) showing Union members leave non-union members in the dust, and productivity is only one of the ways they do this. Take a moment and read this please
Union vs. Non-Union: Training Is Key Factor to Worker Productivity
As for my intellect, any knowledge I have is despite the public school system. See, unlike you I don't sit back and wait for people to give me information. I try to learn it for myself. I read. I think. I experiment. There is so much to learn in the world. I know I've only cracked a fraction of a percent of what is out there. If I sat around presuming that I was simply educated because i went to school and picked up a few degrees, id be as ignorant as you.
So far you are batting "0" Avatar. Should have paid attention in class to the Union teacher.
Just once before i die,i would love to see just one Welfare Recipient or Teacher say Thank You to Taxpayers for providing them with the benefits they enjoy. For every Food Stamp handed out there is a man or woman working their butt off to provide those Food Stamps. The Democrats need to stop promoting this Entitlement attitude. I think most Americans are just sick of Teachers & Welfare Recipients and their Entitlement shit. Too much complaining and not enough thanking coming from these people. Enough is enough.

Youre argument of "You're wrong because I say so" isn't very compelling.
Educate yourself. You have already established you have no clue what you are talking about when you refused to provide a statute yesterday.
Governments will have to stand up to the Unions. Times have changed. The days of endless Entitlements are over. The Unions are very powerful but Walker is proving that you can stand up to them. Kudos to him.

Yet another ignorant fool who thinks that "the lazy bums" are ruining this country and that teachers or welfare recipients don't appreciate or thank for what they get.
WTF, man. Quit blaming a non-existent lazy populace. The vast majority of people on welfare aren't bad people.
When are the Dems going to get some BAWLS and point out that conservatives like you HATE the little guy. HATE helping anyone who needs help at all.
Drop welfare altogether and see what happens with this country. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
