Just now on BOR some pro-union radio show host from Wisconsin was saying “We’re going to shut this state down tomorrow, we should shut this state down”.

You bet....As I mentioned, watch for more government employee violence...They'll try to shut down the state to get what they want..

Nothing matters but their bloated government salaries, their tax paid lottery style benefits and government retirement pensions.

Did you know there are now more unionized government employees than there are in the private sector?

I wonder if the unionized LEOs will break solidarity to enforce the law?

Even the leftist FDR was against unionizing public workers.

Can the governor deputize the citizenry to do it then?

I didn't realize it but I can believe it. Government employees by tradition have always enjoyed a higher living standard in benefits and pay then most private sector workers. I have no sympathies for government union workers none whatsoever.

also mentioned how many years and years the teachers have gone without a raise.

Which is a total lie. They have been limited, but have risen in absolute terms, even though the salaries may not have kept up with inflation. The average total compensation for a Milwaukee Public School teacher is over $100,000. Salary alone is on average over $55,000.
