Hey Barry:
Teachers strike and schools are closed. Students grab bullhorns and march on government buildings. 30,000 educated, average people PROTEST economic policies.
And, Barry, this is MADISON, WISCONSIN!
TODAY! Wednesday and Thursday.
Here's what's happening: the new Republican governor slices taxes on corporations. Just exactly like Rep govs in other states.
Y'all can read it here: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704171004576149003027310600.html?mod=googlenews_wsj
He creates a budget shortfall. He blames public workers and their unions for the financial crisis. He proposes a bill to prohibit public employees from bargaining collectively.
Just another attack on the middle class.
EXCEPT - the middle class - teachers, police, EMT's, snowplow drivers, fire fighters, students - know EXACTLY what is happening.
They don't like it. They march to the capitol and demand the bill be stopped. They close schools.
They are not happy, Barry.
Not happy.
Y'all need to get in front of this, Barry.
We need you there
Your pal,
