21. Did I say I was no longer going to support them?

No I did not.

You know I could easily not give a shit, why because I am in the 7% meaning 93% of America makes less then me. I have HC and Money saved for retirement, I could retire without SS if I had to. I don't have to worry about were my next meal is coming from or going to the doctor. All my basic needs are met. My livelihood does not depend on Union Wages at all.

From a purely fiscal POV it does not matter who, D or R, runs the show, I do OK either way.

Bottom line is Union Members voting against their own self interest, it is a problem a big problem.

If you want to get hung up on numbers and ensuring the correct % is posted on a political discussion board that few read or know about that is your right but it does not accomplish much of anything.

38% of Union households voted for Walker, so the people citing Ed Schultz are wrong.

I just did a search at DU, and I still can't find this posted anywhere on their site:

No Wonder They Hate Him… Wisconsin Union Loses Half of Membership Due to Walker’s Law

<snipped>

Quote

Public-employee unions in Wisconsin have experienced a dramatic drop in membership — by more than half for the second-biggest union — since a law championed by Republican Gov. Scott Walker sharply curtailed their ability to bargain over wages and working conditions.

Quote

Wisconsin membership in the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees-the state’s second-largest public-sector union after the National Education Association, which represents teachers-fell to 28,745 in February from 62,818 in March 2011.
