How very sad that Wisconsin’s long-established right of union representation is dividing Americans that should be united and will all lose if Gov. Scott Walker is successful in destroying this right. Divide and conquer, the strategy of generals as well as corporations and Wall Street is methodically undermining the middle class in this country, pitting Americans against each other and obscuring the primary issues. This near depression decimated pension funds, 401(k)’s, jobs and security of far too many, but resentment of each other accomplishes nothing. The people responsible for this disaster made billions and never suffered for their criminal, irresponsible behavior as their power and money increasingly corrupts elections.
Wake up, America!
