When you think about the coming riots that the left intends to start, it is best to think of them not as ritious crusaders of what is right, but as the subhuman leeches that they truly are. Think about how the British though of Germans in 1941. How Americans thought of the Japanese on December 8, 1941. How the Russians thought of the Germans in the early 1940s. This is how we should think of the left.

They are an unruly mob of freeloaders that seek to use overwhelming odds and intimidation to take from you, that which YOU have earned. The call us NAZIs while they use the very techniques that the NAZIs used in the late 1930s to establish their power network. They are the national socialist party, after all.

He’s a Republican. I expect he will cave in shortly.

And even if he doesn't, some 'Rat-appointed federal judge will strike down the law in favor of the unions.

Wow. That IS a shocker. I can only land on that show now longer than a minute. Mika’s ‘gotta go potty’ wiggling and condescending facial expressions are too much.

There is no evidence we are anywhere near running out of food.

At best, and under normal circumstances, most markets have a 72 hour stock. Introduce a wee bit of panic, and that drops to an hour or less. If there are no deliveries, you have effectively run out of food.

In my humble opinion, all court decisions should be ignored until the Obama administration starts respecting them himself.

Eventually the rich will get fed-up and stop producing.
There won’t be any wealth for the lefties to spread.

Freakin’ retards. You should see the wild eyes pot smoking teachers at my child’s high school. The parents even stand in line waiting to talk to them on conference night and discuss how much pot the teachers have smoked. It’s absolutely sickening.

Are The Wild Teacher Protests In Wisconsin A Prelude To The Economic Riots That Are Coming To America?

Yes, in the sense that the Teachers are the biggest spoiled brats in America, and they are the first ones who experiencing a very small taste of what government fiscal failure is like.

There is a direct line from this even to the larger event of dollar failure and bank collapse.

The riots following that will not be organized or have a point, it will be about looting and getting food to survive.

We have all been warned, and this is yet another warning sign. Hopefully all Freepers are following the Boy Scout Mott: Be Prepared.

"AND “conservatives” are handing their children over to THESE people to be trained up in the worldview of these corrupt, ill-informed, lazy, greedy, destructive swine."

Can we repeat this please? Does anyone notice that if you just stop feeding the beast your kids that it just might starve? What if, say, just 10% of WI people pulled their kids from the school system? Would it send a message?

Read John Taylor Gatto's "Weapons on Mass Instruction."

"Teachers Gone Wild" has been going on for a long, long, time. The elephant in the room is the poor kids, who are stuck with this system...but, no, don't touch my "me time."

Silver flirting with $32 supports validity of the article’s premise.

The irony is that by reeling in the huge amounts of money that is being gobbled up by hacks is going to lead to our side losing in the future. You see in the past, 40’s,50’s,60’s even Liberals did not believe that public employees should be unionized and showered with cash. The only thing a public employee might have expected was some job security. This left all that tax money available to buy votes with. The Libs of old would actually build stuff, like buildings and roads. But little by little the Libs decided to divert the public money to public employee benefits. A result of campaign finance reform. This culminated with the Obama stimulus. Now there is no money left to actually build stuff. The porkulus accomplished no economic stimulus at all since most of the money was spent for public employee benefits. Most people in the private sector get nothing from the government, or scraps. Even welfare recipients get little compared to those working in the welfare office. The non-hacks have no incentive to vote for Libs anymore. However, if we are succesfull in reversing this, and the Libs can return to New Deal form, many of our supporters will return to voting for the libs as they or their parents, grandparents did 60 years ago. But you know what, it would be worth it.

The automatic deduction of union dues through payroll would cease also. This is a bigger problem for the unions. When the workers have to write checks the unions will have to become debt collectors.

No, but we are running out of money to give to deadbeats to buy food (& pay rent, buy gas, buy weed, etc.)

It would be interesting for one state to simply end all their welfare programs and see what happens. Of course most of the states that would consider doing this have small welfare rolls, probably including the few legitimate clients, such as the mentally retarded.

In Oregon pretty much an minority youth (which appears to go until at least age 35) can get free money by signing up to go to community college. This is typically combined with rent subsidized housing to provide a decent no-work welfare lifestyle. The required case load is so low that a two year associates degree can be dragged out for five or six with the state paying everything for these "disadvantaged" people essentially endlessly.

The Unions would ruin this country if they had the chance.

At one point in time, roughly 100 years ago, unions were thoroughly necessary to protect workers who lacked bargaining power against companies, where there was child labor and there were horrid working conditions. However, now we have labor laws guaranteeing minimum wages, maximum hours before overtime must be paid, no child labor like we had and lots of safety measures. At this point, unions are a leech on society and, more than any part of society, on the very workers that they claim to represent.

Here we're talking about a public employee union. "Public employee" is another phrase for "civil servant." Where is their desire and willingness to serve? Why, if the military doesn't have them and its members endure far more hardship and danger on the job, are there even allowed to be public employee unions? I think that this question will begin to be asked, now that the WI teachers have begun to act like a bunch of 2-year-olds that just had their lollipop taken away.

But let's get back to that "leech" thing - what is a leech? It is a parasite, it is something that lives off of its host, it produces or contributes nothing to the host (like a sybiote does). You know, the Mafia is also a parasite - it produces nothing, it lives off of the labor of others, and it clearly harms its host, which is us, all of society. But at least the Mafia KNOWS that it is a parasite, and it KNOWS that if it kills the host then it, too, will die. So the older criminal organizations, looking long-term, limit their effect on society to a certain extent. Also, the Mafia knows that if it harms the host too much, the host will fight back, and it will be hurt a lot. The public employee unions haven't yet figured out that they are parasites. No, not the individual members, but the union itself. Hopefully, WI's governor will communicate this idea to the public (and, frankly, to the teachers themselves, who will end up worse off than if they had simply accepted the Gov.'s proposal), and also stand strong like Reagan did against the air traffic controllers and Chris Christie has against the NJ Mafia, errrr, teachers union.

Time for the host to kill the parasite!

The communists are planning big riots this year.

I sure hope so ... and I hope they wear their brightest red shirts.

If one thing is to be learned by the New Jersey experience, it's that government officials should stand their ground in the face of petulant, spoiled public workers who have naive, unrealistic expectations.

Christie has a lot of flaws, but I gotta give him a ton of credit for one big thing. I never thought I'd see this, but within his first 6-9 months in office public school teachers were effectively reduced in terms of public respect to a level somewhere down around lawyers and arsonists.

This approach should be repeated all over the U.S. What changed the whole tone in New Jersey was the ridiculous expectations of public employees who insisted on getting pay raises and making no contributions to their own medical insurance plans . . . even as more and more of the taxpayers who paid their salaries were losing their jobs, their homes and their own medical coverage.

I thought NBC news coverage was very balanced and maybe even leaning to the side of the Republicans. At least they emphasized the deficits.

Just looking at this graph tells you what we need to do... REVERSE the government spending curve!



These "polite" political cuts on the margins will NOT solve the problem. So we are left to draw one of two conclusions:


A) They are sooo clueless and naive that they really believe the BS they are trying will work

or


B) They are cynical realists that are executing a master plan to destroy America and US sovereignty!


IF you think choice B is just for tin hat wearing, Glenn Beck views and other conspiracy theorists, I would challenge you to disprove it based solely on their actions and not the political rhetoric of the government and their willing accomplices in the media.
