Ah, yes. Further weakening of workers' rights and increased dependence of politics on corporate money is just what we need. The slump to parliamentarian plutocracy accelerates.

Workers still have the right to unionize.

lol. A right that exists only on paper and is eviscerated by reality. Not that the pre-Walker status quo provided unions with enough to even sustain themselves in most instances.

How has the right to unionize been squashed?  The laws have merely made it so that unions have less control and workers have more rights over whether or not they want to join said unions.

The amount of reactionary right-wing hackery in this thread-posts that demonstrate ignorance of history and contempt for the organizations that have been the main reasons for any sort of public welfare, which benefits ALL people (rather than "the market" that, left to its own devices, always punishes the many for the privilege of the few)-is quite breathtaking.

But then again, bourgeois individualism has always bred arrogance and hubris.

Defense of what's happened in Wisconsin is right-wing hackery?  Yet calling those hacks arrogant and prideful isn't hackery?
