I hope that they do. Let them tap their union coffers for another $40 million only to get shot down again. What you people don't understand is that Wisconsin hasn't broken the union. They have only stopped the ability of the public union to bargain collectively.

All of this is available online if you actually care about it.

As far as private unions, I was in one early in my career. Aerospace and Machinists. Every other year they struck the company. This company had over 1100 of the highest paid employees in the state. After the 10th strike in 20 years. They closed te plant.
