Liberals are claiming that the battle in Wisconsin is not about money and debt. To them it’s about rights. They believe public union workers have a “right” to collective bargaining.
Even an organized labor hero disagrees. FDR disagrees. He argued against collective bargaining by public unions, and he did more than any other president in history to support unions. He also worked hard to redefine what a right is. FDR proposed a second bill of rights that sounded like he was channling Karl Marx.
That is how far we have strayed since FDR first empowered labor unions. It used to be that labor unions just destroyed the industries they worked in. Public employee unions work in the most impotant industry…our country. This great country is done if their greed brings down the industry they work in.
