*They aren't going to raise taxes, except for the the public workers. Is what they should have said. (Although I think they should be paying more into the pension fund if they are going to get a lot back out.) Or will teacher salaries just increase 5%, so they will be able to 'choose' which 401k to invest in...

Scratch Wisconsin off the list of places I would want to live. And yes, the history of Unions is distorted, but I enjoy not living in a caste like society like India or being a wage salve in China. I'm not sure if the GOP/tea party wouldn't enjoy transforming America into that type of society, either knowingly, or as a survival of the fittest type of thing.

I just wish people saved a lot more money, so they could say screw this job, have fun finding hundreds of people and training them in the next week.
