Editor's Note

Unfortunately, it looks like it won’t be addressed until an imminent financial disaster is upon us (which is coming). I’m not sure I agree with Gov. Walker’s idea to eliminate public-sector bargaining rights altogether, but I admire that he is taking a bold stand on a series problem.

Here’s an idea: give me a union that is willing to fight for fairness for its members, while also having an interest in the long-term financial health of those paying the bill (e.g., private companies or taxpayers). I don’t think I’ll be around to see the day.
