GAY RELUBRICANTS Where are you now? lulz

What? I couldn't care less about unions personally. What I do see personally, however, is a bill that was passed in WI titled Budget Repair Bill had absolutely zero to do with repairing a budget that quite frankly for WI wasn't broken. The $140 shortfall was because of tax CUTS Walker made for corporations of just around $140 million. Unlike most every other state in the union, WI was doing comparatively well.
You're not really aware why the Republicans won so big there in November are you?

When corporations fill the airwaves with promises of candidates promoting the Repub platform of keeping jobs locally and getting more jobs and saving the economy vs. the Dems mediocre spending, it's pretty clear.

When, however, what the Repubs actually did was NOTHING to do with that platform, however, it is a bit interesting.

jobs and the deficit. theyve done absolutely nothing on either front. in fact, theyve cost even more jobs

I dind't know a $1.8 BILLION shortfall was a thing of envy.

Your source:
Wisconsin faces a budget shortfall of $137 million for the current FY2011 and the prospect of a $3.6 billion hole in the coming two-year budget.[1] Gov. Scott Walker proposed budget cuts to balance the state's budget, and a bill related to collective bargaining by unions triggered days of protests in the state capitol.

Indiana: The state faces a $1 billion gap between the state's revenue and expenses in the state's next budget, which includes the need to build up reserves by $500 million
that's a $500 million dollar savings account deposit to add to this:

Lawmakers also reduced the state's reserves from $1.3 billion to $830 million
.

Wisconsin is getting this kind of flexibility:
IN Gov. Mitch Daniels said:
“It’s helped us in a thousand ways. It was absolutely central to our turnaround here,” Mr. Daniels said in an interview. Without union contracts to slow him down, he said, it has been easy for him to merge the procurement operations of numerous state agencies, saving millions of dollars. One move alone — outsourcing and consolidating food service operations for Indiana’s 28 prisons — has saved the state $100 million since 2005, he said. Such moves led to hundreds losing their jobs.

And in your quotes

Well if you remove positions, of course you save money. The trick is to keep people working to tax them AND keep spending down so you don't shell out as much tax dollars to programs. This is only half of it.

And with "financial emergencies", a governor can take away local governments and put in corporate heads in place to run things much more easily than those pesky elections. Unions just slow that down, too.

When people are unneeded to do a job, they get let go. When someone shows you a way to save money and improve service, that's what you do. The taxpayers of the state of Indiana pay less because they are getting the job done more efficiently.

What's your tagline, "Inefficient as hell, but we keep everyone." sounds like a god damned traffic jam.

It's like you people think a job is forever income. Your states have tired of the entitlement mentality. They're WINNING.
 
you do realize you're failing horribly by saying WINNING, right?

hope WI gets their recall ballot and kicks this crook to the curb
 
I'm saying charlie sheen jock riding and saying WINNING are played out. that's about as funny as quoting caddy shack
