Chalk One Up for Big Business

Chalk one up to propaganda!  Union workers voted for Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker in Tuesday's recall election.  The only conceivable reason someone would vote directly against their own interests is the result of misinformation.  I know full well that one can be frustrated with their union for its miss-steps and sometimes questionable practices, but taking away collective-bargaining will only hurt all working class people in the long run.  Our entry into the middle class income bracket is a result of the long fought battle for worker rights, fair wages, affordable health insurance, and livable pensions.  This happened through the collective action of groups that could stand toe-to-toe with their bosses.  Ignorance in a population is a beautiful thing to preserve to keep the money flowing up.
