It's Time to Break the Unions

^.^

Wisconsin governor Scott Walker should step up and put a stop to the situation in the capitol building. He can do this in a number of steps, as follows:

‎1: THE NATIONAL GUARD SHOULD CLEAR THE CAPITOL BUILDING :: The protestors have a right to speak, but not a right to obstruct the operations of government, and not the right to picket outside the houses of government officials. The national guard should be called in to clear the state capitol, and those who are picketing outside the houses of government officials should be arrested for endangering public safety.

 
‎2: THE STRIKING TEACHERS SHOULD BE FIRED! :: President Reagan set the precedent with the air traffic controllers in 1981, when he had the government fire any air traffic controller who did not return to work when they went on strike, and p...ut the entire air network in jeopardy. The protesting teachers are not doing their jobs, and they are not teaching children, something that is rather vital for society. The teachers should be ordered to return to work. Those that don't should be fired and replaced. There are anough people out there who are looking for a good stable job. This would also break the back of the WEA, the teacher's union.

‎3: DOCK PAY :: Any teacher who called in sick, and instead showed up at the protests, should not be paid for what is essentially the fraudulent use of sick pay. Since the taxpayers pay the salary of the teachers, if they are not working, they should not be paid by the taxpayers.

"Freedom of assembly? And even if the teachers are not in the classroom, you can bet their students are learning from their actions."

My Reply:

The protestors can "assemble" outside the capitol building. Just because you have the right to assemble does not mean you have the right to obstruct the operations of the state government. Along the same lines, freedom of speech does not mean you have a right to be heard.

The teachers are not doing their jobs. They are not doing what the school districts pay them to do. With this in mind, they should not be paid.
